BCS Practitioner Certificate in Requirements Engineering Training in France

This three-day course develops the skills needed to work with business and IT requirements. Understand where requirements come from e.g., Stakeholders (explained), External influences, Regulations. Ensure that requirements are complete, unambiguous, realistic, and testable. Learn how to document, analyse, and manage requirements taking account of Agile and Linear (Waterfall) development method needs.

Delegates will learn how to work with stakeholders and other requirements actors to ensure the requirements are complete, unambiguous, realistic, and testable. Whether you work in an agile or linear environment, this course explores requirements engineering from both.

The July 2021 certificate was updated to continuously improve the quality of learning within our professional certifications. In the updated BCS Practitioner Certificate in Requirements Engineering you’ll learn how to take a systematic approach to eliciting, defining, analysing, validating, documenting, and managing requirements in both agile and linear project environments.

The certificate includes:

• The Requirements Engineering Framework
• How to elicit requirements and techniques to use
• How to collaborate and communicate with stakeholders in the requirements process
• How to write a user story
• Best practice approaches to document requirements
• How to manage requirements
• Validating, prioritising and quality assurance in the requirements process
• Analysing and evaluation of requirements

Define Requirements Approach and Project Scope

Learners will examine what a requirement is, the stages of requirements engineering, understand the different factors that can impact the approach taken for requirements engineering and learn about the contents of a project initiation documents.

Elicit Requirements

This module explores different knowledge types, requirements elicitation techniques and when best to use them. The suitability of these techniques in an agile and linear project environment are also considered.

Record Requirements

This module allows learners to explore different categories of requirements, understand the importance of documentation and different documentation styles including requirements catalogue entries and user stories.

Build Models and Prototypes to Represent the Requirements

Learners will understand the importance of modelling requirements and will learn how to prepare various UML diagrams including use case diagrams and class diagrams. Learners will explore how prototyping can be used to elaborate and validate requirements.

Collaborate and Communicate with Stakeholders to Clarify Requirements

This module looks at the responsibilities of different actors in requirements engineering. It explores the purpose and approaches that can be used for requirements validation, and how this may be influenced by agile methodologies.

Analyse, Prioritise and Assure the Quality of Requirements

Learners will examine the purpose and techniques that can be used to analyse and prioritise requirements and how to improve the quality of requirements. The purpose of slicing, the application of business rules and the importance of testability are all considered in this module.

Conduct User analysis and Profiling

This module explores techniques used to analyse roles, the purpose of a customer journey maps and the importance this has on requirements engineering.

Requirements Management and Traceability

This final module examines the rationale and the approach to achieving requirements traceability, the importance and elements of requirements management and chance control.
