Planning & Estimating for Requirements Discovery
Overview
This is an on-line course taught live in three 3-hour sessions from our state-of-the-art video-conferencing facility.
This is an applied course taught in a case study format where the group takes a project from its vision and initially defined scope and determines the plan and approach for the elaboration and management of the requirements for the project. The outcome is complete Requirements Management Plan with an agreed-upon approach for the requirements definition and management, estimate, and work plan that will stand alongside and support a traditional or agile development effort.

Purpose
How long is it going to take to “do the requirements”? What approach are you going to use? Is a BRD needed? What templates should be used? What level of detail do we need? How many requirements discovery sessions will be needed? Who should attend? When should they be scheduled? What techniques do we use (use cases, process models, story maps?) What authoring and/or collaboration tools will we be using? What is our process for reviewing, verifying, validating, prioritizing, and managing changes?
As a Project Manager, Business Analyst, or Consultant you need to answer these questions. This course will provide you with a framework and template to assist you in the decisioning process for developing an efficient and effective plan and strategy for the requirements definition and management on your projects.
