Object-Oriented Analysis and Design

At the end of this 4-day workshop participants will be able to analyze a new or existing system project, develop a requirements specification, and create a system design. The latest techniques are combined with effective proven modeling methods. The workshop focuses on developing complete and accurate specifications in the shortest possible time. The material is based on practical and effective methods that have evolved from many years of experiences with software projects.

Experienced and novice IS professionals will benefit from this very understandable foundation workshop. This workshop will complement and support product and tool- specific training and can be used with all known methodologies. The workshop itself is methodology-neutral. The workshop is heavily "hands on" (about 65%). There are no automated tools; all work is a simulation of real situations and done in teams relying heavily on group interaction.

The workshop is strongly tied to the works of Jacobsen, Booch, and Rumbaugh and uses the UML notation.

Who Should Attend

This workshop is extremely helpful for systems project leaders, systems analysts and designers, software engineers, and programmers.
