<p>I'm interested in starting coding dojos at the company I work at (during or after working hours). I think it will help to spread knowledge on how to write clean, concise and consistent code. I've been part of coding dojos in the past and it's really helped me be a better software engineer. I especially think that this could be useful for engineers who are switching to a new language e.g. Java to Golang.</p>
<p>What I'm not sure of is how to measure its success or failure? Is it worth taking 30-60 minutes of the company's time per week to allow their engineers to hone their skills?</p>
<p>I could send out a simple questionnaire after every session, and try to measure how much people have learned. Or I can try and measure the quality of code in PRs? That would be really interesting to do!</p>
<p>Has anyone done such a thing? If so what did you do?</p>
