Portland State University: April 2011

Title: Requirements Gathering Essentials

Event: Portland State University, Professional Development Center

Date: April 13, 2011, 8:00 A.M. - 4:30 P.M.

Speaker: Christopher Dennis

Unpleasantly surprised by "new" information halfway through your last project? Sure there's a better way to capture what your stakeholders really want? Can't remember clearly what the team set out to do?

Equaling or exceeding requirements is the very definition of project success. At the same time, unspoken needs, misrepresented essentials, and ignored realities are all potential disasters for teams, their projects, and their enterprises.

The course also helps individuals and teams with requirements discovery and the steps that follow: clear documentation, efficient validation and scoping, and insightful analysis.
