Requirements Analysis Training Course

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

This course demonstrates through hands-on practice the fundamentals and applications of software engineering, requirements engineering and testing.

Business analysis is the process of examining, understanding, and defining business needs in order to develop solutions that meet those needs. Jest a key element in the process of managing changes in the organization and designing new business solutions.

Objective

This introduction seminar provides you with an overview of the digital business models, business and enterprise architecture frameworks as well as methodologies that organizations are trying to focus on to increase their business agility facing disruptions of the digital age.

In particular, this seminar aims at helping you to understand frameworks and reference architectures that are used worldwide to align digital business models and IT system architectures with the changing competitive landscape.

Objective:

Helping Business Analysts to understand how to efficiently model and validate their business processes and resources in order to increase business agility of their organization on the basis of their target architecture and changing market needs.

This 2 day training course aims at helping delegates to learn how to model their business processes and resources in order to adapt them to changes of their goals, strategies and impacted capabilities as part of the target architecture. On the basis of the key elements of business performance (strategies, tactics, KPI, business capabilities, etc...), delegates learn there how to elaborate a vision centric business process and resource cartography. Then, only using the appropriate BPMN and UML notation adapted to their language, they understand how to adapt them to changing strategies, tactics and policies.

Course Audience:

Managers who want to understand BPMN diagrams, Business Consultants, Business Analysts, Business Process Engineers, System Analysts and anyone who is involved in analyzing and planning Business Processes using standardized, unified modelling notation.

Course Goals:

• Produce high-quality process diagrams
• Model in the BPMN process notation
• Capture as-is process information
• Implement optimized process flows for people-intensive processes
• Simplify complex process definitions and break them into more manageable pieces

This course has been created for anyone responsible for modelling processes in BPMN 2.0.

It focuses on practical aspects of all BPMN 2.0 specification as well as implementations of common patterns.

It is a series of short lectures followed by exercises: the delegates will have a problem described in English, and will have to create a proper diagram for each problem. After that, the diagrams will be discussed and assessed by the group and the trainer.

This course focuses on understand the BPMN diagrams but also covers basic part of the execution part of BPMN.

This course has been created for business analysts who want to use BPMN 2.0 extensively in their projects.

This course doesn't cover execution part of BPMN, it focuses on analysis and process design aspects of BPMN 2.0.

Audience:

Delegates who have an interest in Process Modelling will benefit from attending this business process modeling notation training course including:

• Business and Process Analysts
• Process Designers and Implementers
• Project and Programme Managers
• Anyone involved with business change and transformation.

The course aims at teaching the practical knowledge and learning BPMN modeling skills at the Intermediate and Advanced levels.

The ideal participant is a business analyst training, meaning the person discovering, identifying, gathering and analyzing user requirements to the system. - The advanced computer application developers and system architects interested in the prospect of creating business processes, system and custom drivers.

The course does not address issues Executable BPMN level.

Training is conducted in much the dominant technique in the form of a computer (~ 90%), during which the one hand, we translate real business situations for BPD, on the other hand ready to interpret diagrams assessing their practical utility.

The course is very intensive practical course in the strict sense, the training did not deal with in any way, theoretical considerations of BPMN.

This course focuses on holistic, structured approaced to finding bottle necks and optimizing business processes.

It is a practical workshop where participants will be given examples and later will need to solve similar cases during team exercises.

• Using the company experience in process management in other banks / sectors to illustrate the presentation  
• Introducing the participants to the different process methodologies (Lean, SIX Sigma) but not full of theory about those methodologies (aim of this training is not to pass the Lean or Six Sigma certifications but to get an awareness of different methodologies to see how we can use part of it in our daily activity)
• The presentation should be oriented mostly on business issues (and not pure IT processes)
