ADVANCED BUSINESS ANALYSIS
| Course Description |
|
This workshop uses a case study to help you explore two standard approaches to conceptual modeling: the Unified Modeling Language and Information Engineering. It is designed to be prescriptive as well as descriptive. This means that best practice will be emphasized through explanation and application. You will discover what should be done as well as how to do it, and why. PDUs = 21.
Course Length: 3 Days
