The Paul Yao Company is dedicated to the mission of helping programmers reach the peak of their personnel productivity. Through its training services, programmer tools, white papers, magazine articles, and books, the Paul Yao Company helps programmers achieve the breakthroughs they need to stay competitive and to get ahead of the learning curve of new technologies.

We have been shedding light on Windows programming since 1987, and offer Power Programming Workshops, eCoaching for Programmers, Development Tools, Design Reviews, and Consulting Services to a our worldwide base of customers.

Power Programming Workshops
Our Power Programming Workshops are five-day lecture and lab based workshops that we can deliver at our location or at your site. We call these "Power Programming" because we provide a lot of information that you cannot get anywhere else in a short period of time. We offer training in developing for the Windows CE .NET platform, including platform development, device drivers, and applications. We also offer training in the development of printer device driver for all versions of Microsoft Windows.

Each of our workshop features proprietary development tools to help programmer in their development projects. These tools include diagnostic tools and code wizards to minimize programmer downtime and maximize the fun - and the productivity - of software engineers.

eCoaching for Programmers
For programmers who are unable to attend our classes in person, or who cannot wait for the next public offering, we offer eCoaching for Programmers. This unique service provides world wide access to our extensive knowledge base. Programmers who sign up for this service receive all the materials, development tools, and sample code provided for our training classes. On their schedule and at their convenience, programmers work through a set of programming exercises that help them understand the key elements of a given topic. Our expert instructors are available during the 30 day eCoaching time period, to provide encouragement, answer questions, and help a programmer avoid wasting time while they come up to speed on a new technology.

Design Reviews
Our design review service allows your development team to get expert advice during critical junctures in your development process. Our experts can help you by asking the tough questions before you start coding, helping you dig in and uncover difficult bugs, or by reviewing your code prior to shipping your code. We provide the objective, outside opinion to help give you the confidence to move ahead with your development projects.

Consulting Services
When you are short manpower for a project that needs an expert, we can help.
