Description
This one-day live online course shows participants how they can use Enterprise Architect in an Agile environment. Using out-of-the box features as well as customized stereotype elements, participants will get hands-on practice setting up an agile repository and using it for writing, mapping, refining, and planning user stories and your product backlog.
Participants will receive a Project Template file with pre-configured agile elements, artifacts, relationships, any stereotyped elements, type values, and tagged values used in the class.
We assume you have a good understanding of the fundamental aspects of the Enterprise Architect software (which you can get with The Fundamentals of Sparx Enterprise Architect) as well as a basic knowledge of Agile and Business Analysis (which you can get with Lean-Agile Business Analysis.)
IAG is a leader in Lean-Agile Business Analysis and brings that expertise along with our expert knowledge of the intricacies and capabilities of Enterprise Architect to this unique workshop. Learn tips and tricks you will not get anywhere else, in this special course offered in a live online format.
