In today’s fast-paced tech industry, the ability to learn and adapt quickly is essential. But with the abundance of online resources, many developers struggle to teach themselves efficiently. In this session, Arthur Bernier Jr., Senior Software Engineer and Educator, will introduce a powerful framework for mastering new technical skills: the EDIP Method (Explain, Demonstrate, Imitate, Practice).

Arthur will break down how this proven method, traditionally used in classrooms and bootcamps, can be adapted for self-directed learning, helping developers at all stages of their career accelerate their growth. Attendees will learn:

• How to effectively explain new concepts to themselves in a way that boosts retention.
• The importance of breaking down complex topics into practical demonstrations.
• How to imitate expert-level work to sharpen skills and build confidence.
• Practical ways to integrate deliberate practice into a self-teaching routine.

Whether you’re learning a new programming language, diving into DevOps, or mastering machine learning, this session will equip you with a structured approach to self-learning that works. Join this session to develop a skill set that will keep you ahead of the curve in the ever-evolving tech landscape.

This description highlights both the EDIP method and the focus on self-teaching, making it highly relevant to a technical audience.
