Writing effective requirements is a critical skill for subject matter experts who represent the business interests on an IT project and for business analysts. The challenge lies in defining business needs in the form of business requirements, stakeholder requirements, solution requirements, and transition requirements that other audiences will interpret as intended and use to design the solution.

This business analysis online training workshop provides a proven set of core business analysis techniques, methods and tricks to help business professionals create, clarify, and confirm business, stakeholder, solution, and transition requirements (i.e., meaning the kind of business requirements that the IT professionals need to do their job well).

Note: This instructor-led course delivered in two virtual sessions via the Internet covers the same content as the second day of our 3-day course, “How to Elicit (Gather), Write, and Analyze Business Requirements” which can be delivered live at your site.

Learning Objectives

• Apply the five rules of a "good" requirement sentence
• Translate business needs into well-structured business requirement statements
• Write business requirements that express the what and avoid the how
• Discuss the problem with language based requirements
• Verify the "testability" of a requirement
• Discuss the difficulties in writing quality, "-ability" requirements (ex: reliability)
• Distinguish qualitative from quantitative performance factors

Sponsored Public Training for Small Groups

If you prefer onsite training, our strategic partner RSG will schedule a sponsored public course offering for small groups of 4 - 7 people. What is that, you ask? They work with you to arrange training facilities at your site or nearby. You guarantee the minimum attendance consisting of your group for which they negotiate a reasonable rate (depending on how large your group is, who pays for facilities, and other factors). They then advertise this offer on their website to attract additional attendees. For each additional attendee that pays and registers for the class at their standard public rate, they rebate you an agreed-upon amount. By the way, if you bring additional attendees to them, the rebate is higher. The more people that register, the cheaper the training is for you! Contact RSG to discuss sponsoring a public training event for your small group in your area.

Personal Virtual Workshops for Individuals

We will schedule any of our online IT business analysis training courses to fit your schedule, even if you are the only one attending (sorry, there is a premium for this concierge-like service). Contact us to discuss scheduling this premium service for you.
