Course Overview
Systems Modelling Techniques provides Business Analysts with a good grounding in modelling techniques to use when specifying IT systems. The course examines the need to model IT systems requirements from different perspectives and focuses on using models from the Unified Modelling Language. Key areas such as evaluating selected models against business objectives and system requirements, appreciating how the selected models inter-relate with each other, and describing how the products of analysis feed into the design and development of a system are also covered. The syllabus is constructed so that the examination can reflect different modelling notations and hence does not go into the detail of any one specific approach. This allows a choice of structured, object oriented or agile modelling approaches to be examined. Holders of the ISEB Certificate in Systems Modelling Techniques should be able to:- Justify the need for IT system modelling and modelling techniques
- Explain why it is important to model IT system requirements from different perspectives
- Develop models of system functionality. These models should be either process models with supporting process descriptions or use case diagrams with supporting use case descriptions.
- Develop models of system data. These models should be either entity relationship models or analysis class models, both with supporting descriptions.
- Develop a dynamic model. This model should be either an entity life history showing the effect of events on an entity or a sequence diagram showing the realisation of a use case
- Evaluate selected models against business objectives and system requirements
- Appreciate how the selected models inter-relate with each other
- Describe how the products of analysis feed into the design and development of a system
All course materials, refreshments and lunches are included in the price of the course, including the book Business Analysis by Don Yeates and Debra Paul. Exams may be taken either at the end of the course or, if the candidate wishes time for additional study, at a later date.
