How to Write Business Requirements for IT Projects

Writing Effective Business Requirement Statements

for Business Analysts and Subject Matter Experts (90+ minutes)

This online, self-paced course teaches business analysts and subject matter experts (SME) how to express business needs in simple, complete, well-structured, and focused requirement statements. Your business requirements, stakeholder requirements, solution requirements, and transition requirements are not well-expressed until they communicate in terms that the intended audience can interpret as intended what it is that you need or want the technology to deliver. These business analysis techniques will help you write better business requirements from the very beginning of the project.

Removing Ambiguity and Subjectivity from Requirements

for Business Analysts, SMEs and Testers (90+ minutes)

This online, self-paced course teaches business analysts and subject matter experts (SME) how to improve the understandability of business requirements, stakeholder requirements, solution requirements, and transition requirements by removing ambiguity and subjectivity. Only if other people are able to comprehend, approve, and implement what the requirement expresses — and what it does not — are you likely to get the technology solution that meets the business need.

Improving the Testability of Requirements

for Business Analysts, SMEs, and Testers (90+ minutes)

This online, self-paced course presents business analysis techniques for improving the measurability of a requirement statement (whether you wrote the original or not). Being able to measure a business requirement will increase the probability that the developers will understand – and deliver – what you ask for. A powerful by-product of this rule is that when you ask how will you measure or know that a business requirement has been achieved, it reveals additional information about the requirement.

The RSG Difference

How do we separate ourselves from the competition? Each "knowledge nugget" is web-based and:

  • covers a single topic and focuses on "how to do it"
  • is full of examples and interactive exercises that reinforce the skills we are presenting in a safe, controlled setting
  • provides extensive debriefs and feedback that explain why we consider one answer preferable to another
  • is narrated by a certified instructor to enhance your learning experience
  • provides a transcript of the narration in printed form to allow viewing in 'silent mode'
  • provides an outline and a build-in electronic search option for the entire course content
  • lasts only 1-2 hours so you don't need to reserve a lot of time
  • offers an "email the instructor" feature for quick answers to questions
