| This UML training course is aimed at project managers
who wish to update their project management skills to take account of the latest advances
in software development techniques. It teaches how to manage a highly iterative and agile
model-driven software development process
that employs UML modelling techniques for the development of complex object oriented or
structured, multi-tier component or web-based
|
information systems. With the advent of new technologies and architectures and increasing levels of
complexity and timescale pressure, project management techniques have had to adapt and become more flexible.
Agile development enables a continuous process of specification, estimation, scheduling and assessment to take
place in a constantly moving business environment while providing relevant functionality to end users.
