IREB® Certified Professional for Requirements Engineering (CPRE) (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. You will receive the Certified Professional for Requirements Engineering (CPRE) certificate if you pass the corresponding exam by answering the majority of the exam questions correctly. trendig’s CPRE course pass rates have been above the industry average for years.

requirements engineering seminar for beginners

In this foundation level seminar, you learn the most important requirements engineering 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.

In our CPRE course, 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, own the CPRE certificate and a have track record as consultants in small and big projects.
