- Quality Assurance: Building scripts that test for traceability in requirements.

This is a full three day program conduced on the client's site for students that have taken our analyst techniques training program. Students do real work during this program and bring in a real project to use as the case study on day two. This enables students to practice launching and facilitating directly with projects they may be leading. Ours is an intensive program focusing as much on 1:1 mentoring as on providing practical leadership techniques. Because of this, we strictly limit attendance to 6 students maximum per session.
