Every BUSINESS AND SYSTEM ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY HAS ALWAYS LACKED THIS FUNDAMENTAL FOUNDATION – a method to find the exact, in-context questions to ask clients. Business system requirements analysis isn’t horseshoes. “Close is good enough” won’t cut it. If you are new to analysis .... Or, if you want to change the results you get as an analyst, and how quickly you get it, then join us on this exceptional course. You will quickly learn a field-tested, highly-focused, rapid, “real agile” (yet fully documented) and risk-free approach to business system requirements analysis.  You will never, ever, look back. * This program is for Business or System Analysts (non-technical and technical professionals can register). * It is an advanced course for new or experienced analysts.  * It is easy to follow and easy to read. No fuzzy stuff. Fast to finish.  * YOU LEARN AT YOUR OWN PACE, ON YOUR OWN SCHEDULE; WHERE YOU WANT, WHEN YOU WANT. * THERE ARE 16 VIDEO SEGMENTS FOR ADDITIONAL CLARITY AND UNDERSTANDING Full email support for your questions or guidance. YOU WILL GET ANSWERS TO EACH OF THE FOLLOWING: * HOW DO WE FIND THE RIGHT QUESTIONS TO ASK? How do we quickly find all the questions to ask clients? How do we know what the questions should be? How do we know if all the right questions have been asked?  * HOW DO WE FIND UNASKED AND UNANSWERED QUESTIONS? How do we find the ones that no one ever seems to find, or the ones we promised to come back to later and need to keep track of? * HOW DO WE FIND THE QUESTIONS THAT DETERMINE THE REAL SCOPE OF THE PROJECT? How do we prevent ‘scope creep’ during the project? How do we avoid surprises? How can we make the scope real, rather than trying to pin Jell-O to the wall? * HOW DO WE KNOW WHEN WE’RE DONE? How do we know we have found all the questions that need to be asked? How do we know what we don’t know? * HOW DO WE CREATE A SMALL, UNDERSTANDABLE AND BUSINESS-FOCUSED REQUIREMENTS SPECIFICATION THAT EVERYONE CAN UNDERSTAND? How can we put all the related documentation in the same place without redundancy, so we can quickly find it again. * HOW DO WE MAKE THE DOCUMENTATION BRIEF, YET COMPLETE? Can we avoid the Victorian novel, so we can easily maintain it and find elements? How can we make sure it focuses on the business and not on a technology solution? * HOW CAN WE RELEASE AND DISTRIBUTE THE SPECIFICATION? Can we release it incrementally, in an ‘agile’ fashion using modern media? * HOW DO WE DESCRIBE DATA ACCESS REQUIREMENTS BASED ON THE BUSINESS NEEDS? If we need a database design, how can we quickly determine the data accesses required by the business needs, so database designers don’t have to go out and reinvent the business wheel? DETAILED MATERIALS: You will download a detailed session that will answer each and every one of the above questions. We’ll show you how to elicit business requirements quickly and effectively. No abstract theories. This is only about “how to do it”, and nothing else.
