BCS Practitioner Certificate in Requirements Engineering Syllabus
The BCS Practitioner Certificate in Requirements Engineering aims to give you the knowledge and experience in understanding the entire range of concepts, approaches, and various techniques in engineering clear and concise requirements from stakeholders.
This Business Analysis training course comprises a disciplined and rigorous approach to defining your requirements, categorising the requirements effectively, and learning how to elicit requirements from stakeholders to validate them for the project. You will learn how to use the correct set of processes and practices to converge on the right business and IT solutions for the business.
This course fulfils one of the core module requirements and makes up one of the four modules you will need to complete in order to get the International Diploma in Business Analysis, along with the other core module, which is the Practitioner Certificate in Business Analysis Practice. You will then need to gain the practitioner requirement with the Practitioner Certificate in Modelling Business Processes and finally, either the Foundation Certificate in Business Analysis, or the Foundation Certificate in Organisational Behaviour, to fulfil the knowledge-based requirement.
