How to Collect Project Requirements
Key Techniques Every Business Analyst and Project Manager Should Master
This Requirements Gathering course will teach you how to gather requirements and document them. It examines how to plan for requirements gathering and develop a requirements elicitation strategy. It will cover the various elicitation techniques, as well as how to write requirements statements that can be used in developing solutions.
In today’s projects, the biggest success factor is how well the project requirements have been collected and validated. Requirements are the basic components that make up the scope of any project. Project managers and business analysts must plan and closely identify and manage requirements for a project in accordance with existing standards in an organization. First, they must develop a requirements gathering strategy. Working with requirements involves identifying the activities to be undertaken in order to elicit the requirements, and ensuring that necessary steps are taken before and after each elicitation activity.
This course is aligned with the Business Analysis Body of Knowledge® (BABOK®) published by the International Institute of Business Analysis (IIBA™), and can be used towards the training preparation for the IIBA’s Certified Business Analysis Professional™ ( CBAP™) certification.
