How to Design Requirements Processes following (A)SPICE Level 2

Essential Requirements Practices That Lift You on Level 2

To get a good and stable requirements engineering independent from individual abilities or lucky contingencies (A)SPICE offers a set of generic practices that must be adapted to the specific process. These practices target two areas: (a) process management (b) work product management.

The training course presents the practices for both areas and shows ways and means how to adapt them to the requirements engineering process. The solutions will be illustrated in the widely available Atlassian Jira with ease solutions R4J and confluence.

Participants will learn:

• What are the required generic practices of (A)SPICE Level 2?
• Which reasonable goals shall be defined?
• How to control and adapt the goals?
• How to organize suitable resources?
• How to manage work products?
• How to establish quality assurance for the requirements engineering process?

Participants shall have basic experience in the of A(SPICE) base practices Level 1. Prior knowledge or experience with requirements tools is not required.

The course is designed as a rich and highly effective learning experience, including synchronous (classroom) and asynchronous parts (self-study, flipped classroom). At its core is an instructor-led live online session. Participants prepare the live session by guided self-study according to the flipped classroom model. After the live session they can get the opportunity to set up and try out a requirements tool in a self-paced practical exercise, following a step-by-step scenario. The participants can receive access to a discussion forum that helps clarifying follow-up questions and connecting with other practitioners and experts.

The instructors are subject-matter experts with long track-records of practical experience. They also know well how to facilitate highly interactive web-based learning.
