<h2>Project Estimating and Scheduling: In-House Training</h2>
 <p>Establishing realistic estimates and goals for projects that support business objectives and meet client expectations is one of the most challenging aspects of project planning. Delivering those results within the agreed-upon time, cost, and quality constraints is also challenging.</p>
 <p>Attempting to meet impossible deadlines with limited budgets often leads to unplanned product shortfalls, causing long-term support and utilization problems. We have all anguished about this recurring problem, but without having the skills or knowledge to take action, we are unable to break the cycle!</p>
 <p>The goal of this course is for you to be able to support business objectives and meet client expectations by selecting the right planning approach for realistic and cost effective schedules, as well as project budgets. To achieve that, you will focus on gaining the necessary knowledge, skills, and techniques.</p><h3>What You Will Learn</h3>
 <p>At the end of this program, you will be able to:</p>
 <ul>
 <li>Use the work breakdown structure (WBS) as the basis for effective estimating of project resources</li>
 <li>Estimate effort and duration using a variety of techniques</li>
 <li>Develop preliminary schedules using the critical path method</li>
 <li>Apply a variety of optimization techniques to refine preliminary schedules</li>
 <li>Establish realistic schedule and cost baselines, with appropriate contingency reserves</li>
 <li>Explain how earned value management (EVM) contributes to control time and cost performance</li>

<h2>Use Cases for Business Analysis: In-House Training</h2>
 <p>The use case is a method for documenting the interactions between the user of a system and the system itself. Use cases have been in the software development lexicon for over twenty years, ever since it was introduced by Ivar Jacobson in the late 1980s. They were originally intended as aids to software design in object-oriented approaches. However, the method is now used throughout the Solution Development Life Cycle from elicitation through to specifying test cases, and is even applied to software development that is not object oriented.</p>
 <p>This course identifies how business analysts can apply use cases to the processes of defining the problem domain through elicitation, analyzing the problem, defining the solution, and confirming the validity and usability of the solution.</p><h3>What you will Learn</h3>
 <p>You'll learn how to:</p>
 <ul>
 <li>Apply the use case method to define the problem domain and discover the conditions that need improvement in a business process</li>
 <li>Employ use cases in the analysis of requirements and information to create a solution to the business problem</li>
 <li>Translate use cases into requirements</li>
