 Q  What is CMMI?
 A  CMMI stands for the Capability Maturity Model Integrated (CMMI) Project . For more information click here.

 Q  Who should attend the Training Course?
 A 
  • Systems and software engineering managers and practitioners interested in understanding the Capability Maturity Model-Integrated.
  • Practitioners who may be involved in CMMI-based assessment.
  • Systems and Software Engineering Process Group (SEPG/EPG) members who are leading process improvement.
  • Acquirers of software and systems.

 Q  What will course attendees achieve?
 A  This comprehensive, practical course will promote an understanding of:
  • The broad rationale for process improvement as tool for increased efficiency
  • The necessity of defining their engineering development processes.
  • The architecture of the CMMI model (capability levels, process areas, goals, and generic practices).
  • Prerequisite knowledge to be trained as an assessment team member.
  • How to apply CMMI principles in order to meet the needs of systems and software engineering organisations.

 Q  How much does the Course Cost?
 A  The three day course costs AUS$2,640. As part of the course, participants will receive the CMMI Continuous Representation Model, a course notebook, and additional current readings.

For full information about the fees for the current course, including group bookings and online enrolment, see Upcoming Courses.

 Q  How do I register?
 A  The CMMI, and the earlier capability maturity models that it derived from have proven themselves beyond doubt to be highly effective tools for software process improvement, used by organisations in all industries to make themselves more efficient and competitive.

CMMI when applied in your organisation could save thousands of hours of wasted effort on needless rework, earn your organisation substantial profits over time, improve your relationship with customers, and position your organisation strategically for the future
