In a recent interview in Testing Experience magazine with Andreas Golze, Global Practice Director Hewlett Packard GmbH, and Stephan Goericke, Director International Software Quality Institute GmbH, the importance of investing in quality assurance through personnel qualification is highlighted. Golze states: “The experience of the last 15 years has shown that we need a predictable quality in consulting services to be truly successful in the market for quality assurance and governance. When I employ a software developer nowadays, I won‘t take someone who has been an exceptionally good hacker at school, but someone who has experienced a sound professional training.”
Golze has decided to make use of the ISTQB-Tester-Standard as well as the IREB-Requirements Engineering-Standard and QAMP for the certification of Hewlett Packard employees.
Impimpi Technologies supports this philosophy by offering the IREB-Requirements Engineering-Standard and courses that will lead to QAMP Certification.
Impimpi Technologies now offers a Requirements Engineering Foundation course that will lead to International Requirements Engineering Board (IREB) Certification.
As the first step of the Software Development Life Cycle, successful Requirements Engineering is crucial to the success of the development project.
It is imperative to realise that all requirements matter and it is important to know how to gather the right requirements. These requirements must also be documented effectively to ensure that they are implemented properly.
This qualification program was created to ensure IT personnel are competent in the field of software quality assurance. Once certified, companies can be assured that their personnel possess standardised knowledge in the fields of Requirements Engineering, Testing and other specified modules.
QAMP Certification requires to a profound theoretical background in the field of software quality assurance in combination with personal experience.
