Requirements: the Masterclass — Traditional, Agile, Outsourcing

The 13+ hours of instruction in this video course teaches you how to become a requirements wizard — it covers the gamut of the requirements activities. It begins with how to scope the problem using a context model and then how to use business events and business use cases to subdivide the problem space into manageable and convenient chunks. It looks at how to uncover the real problem–something not done on many projects–and then how to find its optimal solution. Then the video show how to write unambiguous and correct stories or requirements to ensure correct development.

The course is suitable for business analysts, agile team members, and others concerned with discovering, writing and communicating the correct requirements.

“Many recorded training sequences often seem to be either videos of live classes with not always the best editing, or talking heads with periodic slides of bullet points. The Robertson’s “Requirements: the Masterclass LiveLessons is not like that. It is a comprehensive review of requirements discovery and management which uses mostly diagrams and graphic illustrations to address their over 13 hours of material. Sure, there are some talking head and bullet point aspects, but they are quite in the minority compared to the more active elements. I think anyone seriously interested in requirements work, whether in traditional, agile, outsourced or off-the-shelf situations would find this series very instructive and thorough.” — Scott Duncan, editor “Software Quality Professional” journal.
