Overview

🕮 Off the shelf (OTS)

Calling all prospective systems developers and business analysts! Does the idea of gaining an overview of the issues and concepts involved in developing quality solutions that satisfy business requirements by using Agile approaches sound appealing to you? If the answer’s yes, then this Systems Development Essentials course is for you. You will study a number of systems development life cycles, both defined and evolutionary, and examine the context in which different lifecycles could be applied before focusing on an Agile approach.

Some of the key areas we’ll look at include examining how the systems development effort can be organised, understanding requirements, stakeholders and roles in an agile environment and considering techniques that support iterative development such as prototyping, hothousing and scenarios.
