Recently added to the training catalogue is Getting it Right With Open Source Program Offices. With organisations now increasingly dependent on the use of open source software, in order to maximise the benefits and minimise risks there is a need for  a dedicated team within an organization that manages its open-source initiatives. These offices are becoming increasingly common as more companies engage with open-source software. OSPOs typically handle tasks such as managing open-source contributions, ensuring compliance with open-source licenses, establishing open-source policies, and fostering collaboration with external open-source communities. They play a crucial role in helping organizations effectively participate in and benefit from the open-source ecosystem while also ensuring legal and ethical compliance.

REVIEWS

“Having been involved in software design and development for the last 12 years, I was keen to increase my awareness of the risks involved with integration of open source components in our proprietary software. The Source Code Control course managed to explain the secrets of this dark art with numerous compelling examples, giving me the justification and confidence to apply the analysis to my own business”

Catherine Geyman, Director, Intersys – Risk & IT consultancy
