IREB® Certified Professional for Requirements Engineering
Foundation Level - 3 days
The objective of every software development process is a functioning solution that meets all the requirements of the various stakeholders and the (legal, technical) regulatory framework. The task of the requirements engineer is to collect these requirements and necessities by means of discussions, observations or other research, to specify them, to validate them and finally to communicate them to the ( third-party) developers of the software solution. In this IREB course you will learn which methods and techniques requirements engineers use for this purpose and how they can best accompany the entire development process.
In this foundation level seminar, you learn the most important requirements terms, which is the basis for every software development. Recent studies show that 50% of all projects are delayed or fail due to incorrect and incomplete requirements. Therefore, it is necessary to identify and determine requirements to ensure successful results.
We address the most important processes and methods, which will help you identify, collect, document, verify and manage requirements. We guide you through the verification and validation phase, in which gaps and inconsistencies become quickly obvious. The more planned, efficient and effective the requirements management, the better the results.
All our trainers have many years of experience in the field of requirements engineering, and a have track record as consultants in small and big projects.
The content corresponds to the curriculum published by the International Requirements Engineering Board (IREB®). Furthermore, our trainers practice with you and give you as many hands-on scenarios as possible to help you apply the previously learned.

To this end, for all our 4- and 5-day courses we offer an in-depth session on one morning or evening, including catering. The participants jointly agree whether they would prefer to get up earlier or stay later, and which topics they would prefer to explore in greater depth with our coach in an informal atmosphere.
