If recent research is accurate, over 80% of U.S. software development organizations do not employ consistent processes to build or acquire software projects. The good news conveyed in this course is that the project frameworks and processes are available. This course shows you how to make software development life cycle processes a reality in your organization! IEEE/EIA standard 12207-1997 is a foundational standard that provides a framework for developing and/or adopting life cycle processes for your own organization and projects. This course takes about 5 hours to complete, including exercises. The narrated slide shows total over 3.5 hours.

The idea of a life cycle implies that the project will use an approach that extends from project inception through ongoing maintenance. This is a practical workshop with many exercises to help you immediately apply the concepts in the IEEE standards.

Your instructor will be Randy Rice, an experienced instructor and practitioner in the software engineering field. You will learn the terminology, process, and challenges of standards in the real world. As a result of attending this seminar, you should have a good working knowledge of some of the most important and helpful software engineering standards and what it takes to to make them a reality in your organization. From this workshop, you will leave with a practical understanding of IEEE/EIA Standard 12207-1997for Software Life Cycle Processes and how to tailor and apply it in your projects.
