Axian's Origins
Axian, Inc. was founded in 1991 as a software consulting
firm by a group of software engineers and computational scientists. After operating
for five years as CETech, Inc., the company merged with A:>SOFTWARE.HLP,
a premier software training company, and became Axian, Inc. The combined backgrounds
and expertise in computing technologies span many generations of languages and
architectures. Axian has developed software and provided on-site staffing for
companies in the U.S., Europe and Asia.
Axian's Services and Business Model
Axian's staff of software developers are available on a contract or
project basis to provide the specific skills and expertise required by our clients.
Project teams can be formed or individual software developers assigned to staff our
clients' engineering projects, either at Axian's office or at a client's site.
Axian's consulting and contract
engineering services are complemented by a series of technical
training courses. The training group is focused on helping software developers
and computer users learn to program in a variety of languages and operating environments,
and to use and administer various systems. Classes can be held at Axian's Training
Center in Beaverton, at PCC's Computer Education Centers, or at any customer's location
worldwide.
