Description
The Advanced Business Analysis workshop is designed for experienced business analysts seeking to enhance their skills in eliciting, analyzing, documenting, and communicating requirements. This hands-on course introduces two powerful modeling approaches—Unified Modeling Language (UML) and Information Engineering—to improve the accuracy and completeness of requirements. Participants will explore best practices for creating data models, use cases, and requirements traceability to ensure project success. Facilitators provide both prescriptive and practical guidance, ensuring participants not only understand what should be done but also how to do it and why.
Training Objectives
- Participants will gain the ability to:
- Analyze and document system functionality and data requirements.
- Model requirements using Object Orientation UML and Information Engineering.
- Create use cases and data models to enhance requirement clarity.
- Maintain high-quality requirements through traceability and prioritization.
- Manage requirements effectively throughout the system development lifecycle.
