Code retreat is a day-long, intensive practice event, focusing on the fundamentals of software developement and design. By providing developers the opportunity to take a part in focused practice, away from the pressures of "getting things done", the code retreat format has proven itself to be a highly effective means of skill improvement. Practicing the basic principles of modular and object oriented design, developers can improve their ability to write code that minimizes the cost of change over time.

Corey Haines is a Journeyman who went for an year of pair-programming tour. Corey is highly involved with the Software Craftsmanship movement and is a frequent speaker on various conferences on the matters of code quality, skills and professionalism.
