Our ability to accurately estimate the software development process might be more important than our ability to actually write code. Estimation can be both art and science, but a lot of developers don't even know where to begin. Poor estimates can lead to missed deadlines, lost opportunities, and a lack of trust between management and developers.

You'll leave armed with smarter estimation techniques and more accurate ways to communicate what's going to happen and when.
