A business/systems analyst solves business problems by designing information systems which execute the strategy defined by the business. These IT solutions generally achieve one of the following goals for the business: implement a new/novel business process, increase efficiency and productivity of existing business processes, or reduce operating costs of existing processes.

This course is intended for those who are moving into the Business Analysis profession and who may, after any pre-requisites are met, be interested in taking the CBAP certification examination by IIBA (www.iiba.org).

Who should attend?

• Entry-level IT Business Analysts
• Self-taught IT Business Analysts wanting to fill in the gaps and put all the pieces together
• Systems Analysts and programmers interested in expanding their role into the business area

There are plenty of tried and tested patterns widely available to everyone. Sometimes it is a matter of changing the names and implementing the pattern in a specific technology. It can save hundreds of hours, which otherwise would be spent on design and testing. Training Goals This course has two goals: first, it allows you to reuse widely-known patterns, second, it allows you to create and reuse patterns specific to your organization. It helps you to estimate how patterns can reduce costs, systematize the design process and generate a code framework based on your patterns. Audience Software designers, business analysts, project managers, programmers and developers as well as operational managers and software division managers. Course Style The course focuses on use cases and their relationship with a specific pattern. Most of the examples are explained in UML and in simple Java examples (the language can change if the course is booked as a closed course). It guides you through the sources of the patterns as well as showing you how to catalogue and describe patterns which can be reused across your organization.

IREB plays an important role in standardizing requirements engineering practices, helping professionals in the field improve their skills and raising quality standards in software development processes. IREB certificates are valued in the industry as confirmation of high professional competences in management and requirements engineering.

Model Based Development (MBD) is a software development methodology that enables faster, more cost-effective development of dynamic systems such as control systems, signal processing and communication systems. It relies on graphic modeling rather than the traditional text based programming.

In this instructor-led, live training participants will learn how to apply MBD methodologies to reduce development costs and accelerate the time to market of their embedded software products.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to

• Select and utilize the right tools for implementing MBD.
• Use MBD to carry out rapid development in the early stages of their embedded software project.
• Shorten the release of their embedded software into the market.

Format of the course

• Part lecture, part discussion, exercises and heavy hands-on practice

Requirements engineering is the process of defining, collecting, documenting, managing and analyzing the needs, expectations and functionalities that should be implemented by a given system, product or IT project. Requirements engineering plays a key role in the success of IT projects because accurate, understandable and consistent requirements constitute the foundation for the system or product being created. Correctly understanding and precisely defining the needs of users and stakeholders is crucial to achieving customer satisfaction and the success of IT projects.

IREB CPRE (International Requirements Engineering Board - Certified Professional for Requirements Engineering) is a certification for professionals in the field of requirements engineering. This certification is intended to confirm knowledge, skills and experience in the area of management and requirements engineering in the software development process. Value of IREB CPRE Certification: Confirmation and recognition of knowledge, skills and experience in the area of requirements engineering. Standing out on the job market as a professional specializing in requirements management. Increased credibility and trust among employers, customers and colleagues.
