Overview
This is the official course, certified by the CMMI Institute in the USA, that introduces version 2.0 of the CMMI process improvement model. JCSE is one of only two official partners of the CMMI Institute based in South Africa.
In today’s high-technology business environment, nearly all organizations are building increasingly complex products and services. As a result, the product development lifecycle has become more difficult to manage and control – organizations frequently experience cost overruns, defects impacting quality and customer expectations, and missed deadlines due to re-work.
CMMI Development is an integrated set of best practices that improves an organization’s capability to develop quality products and services that meet the needs of customers and end users.
CMMI version 2.0 is the newest version of the highly influential model that has been used by top software and systems development companies throughout the world over the past 25 years. This version of the model, released in 2019, covers agile development and DevOps as well as other currently used development methodologies.
Completing this course will help you:
- Understand the relationship between mature and capable development processes and the delivery of high quality software
- Gain a deep understanding of the CMMI model and its key components
- Lead process improvement activities within your organisation
Who is the course for?
The target audience is those who are interested in the role of process improvement in an organisation. This is a required course for anyone who is anticipating being a member on an official CMMI 2.0 Development Benchmark Appraisal Team or on an official CMMI 2.0 Services Benchmark Appraisal Team.
While expertise and experience in the technical aspects of software development might be useful, it is not an essential prerequisite.
