Requirements Engineering

View course dates

Course Duration: 3 days

Course Code: RE-2

Course Description:

Today's organisations require Business Analysts who can extend themselves beyond their conventional role of merely eliciting requirements. They require people who can undertake the requirements engineering process from elicitation to validation and retain ownership of requirements through implementation and testing.

 

This course develops the skills needed to work with requirements stakeholders to ensure that the requirements satisfy their various perspectives and that any conflicts are negotiated to a position of consensus. Delegates will also learn how to work with stakeholders and other requirements actors to ensure the requirements are complete, unambiguous, realistic and testable.

At the end of the course delegates may sit an examination to attain the ISEB Business Systems Development certificate in Requirements Engineering.

 

These delegates should also book on course code REEX-2). This course may be taken as part of the  programme leading to the ISEB Diploma in Business Analysis.

 

This is an intensive three-day course with a combination of lectures, in-class exercises, and case studies.
Those delegates taking the ISEB certificate will need to spend 60-90 minutes each evening on revision and example examination questions.

 

The recommended combination and sequence of courses for delegates wishing to complete programme leading to the ISEB Business Analysis Diploma is either (1) The Organisational Context, Business Analysis Essentials, Modelling Business Processes and Requirements Engineering or (2) The Organisational Context, Business Analysis Essentials and Business Systems Analysis using UML.

Prerequisites:

Those wishing to acquire the skill set required for establishing system requirements.

Those wishing to attain the ISEB Business Systems Development Certificate in Requirements Engineering. (These delegates should also book on course code REEX-2). Candidates with special examination requirements should consult the ISEB web site (www.iseb.org.uk) for the ISEB Special Needs policy. Note that the ISEB must be advised at least four weeks in advance of any special requirements.

There are no specific pre-requisites for this course.
