CMU/SEI-95-TR-007Abstract
The key process areas at Level 3 address both project and organizational issues, as the organization establishes an infrastructure that institutionalizes effective software engineering and management processes across all projects. The purpose of the Training Program is to develop the skills and knowledge of individuals so they can perform their roles effectively and efficiently. Training is an organizational responsibility, but the software projects are responsible for identifying their needed skills and providing the necessary training when the project's needs are unique.
