Training description

The IREB CPRE Advanced Level Requirements Modelling training course deepens the requirements modeling topics introduced at the basic level of IREB certification. During the training, the participant will learn various aspects of requirements modeling – from context modeling, information modeling, to dynamic and scenario modeling. The training places great emphasis on the correct use of Unified Modelling Language (UML) notation.

The training is based on the IREB CPRE Advanced Level Requirements Modelling syllabus developed by the International Requirements Engineering Board (IREB). IREB is composed of recognized, with relevant achievements and track record, representatives of requirements engineering from academia, industry and consulting.

During the training, the participant will learn the scope of knowledge required to approach the certification exam. We will also discuss the exam formula and rules, as well as good practices for preparing for the exam – how to study, what to pay attention to when studying the source material.

Earning the IREB CPRE Advanced Level certification is an excellent investment in your career development. The certificate is internationally recognized and valid indefinitely.
