This 2 hour webinar is a perfect course that will give most PMs and BA’s everything they need to mitigate risk and be successful in their roles.

In this two-hour webinar you will learn the essential concepts of data modeling required of today’s Business Analyst and Project Manager.

Effective requirements definition requires a fundamental understanding of data modeling.

This webinar lays a foundation of the essential aspects of defining the data model and requirements for a project. IAG believes very strongly in this key Business Analysis competency.

Every Project Manager and BA involved in requirements definition and modeling needs to know these critical concepts.

Without a solid basis of data modeling skills, there is a significant risk that quality and value of use-case, business requirement, and business rule documentation will be significantly compromised.

For someone involved or responsible for the business requirements, business architecture or business analysis on a software development project, there are large number of questions to be answered.

  • Do I need to be an expert in data modeling?
    • (No, by the way)
  • How detailed do I need to define the data,
  • Why do I need a data model – especially if we’re working on an existing system?
  • Do I need to produce a logical data model?
  • Do I need to know normalization theory
    • (Hope not)?
  • What do we do about data if we’re ‘Agile’?
  • What about modeling or data definitions for a Business Intelligence project?
  • When and how do I gather data requirements with the SME’s?
    • What’s the best way?

Learning Objectives:

  1. Understand the key concepts of conceptual and logical data modeling
  2. Learn the steps to building a data model
  3. Write clear and concise and consistent data definitions
  4. Apply acceptable modeling principles
  5. Use/apply consistent naming standards

  • The best techniques to actively and consistently engage virtual workers
