Building Development ExcellencE

The official CMMI® Institute certified course, packed with our special bonuses

Why Take This Course

man-wonders-why.png

This one-day class builds upon your existing knowledge of CMMI V2 to provide you with a basic understanding of the CMMI Development (CMMI-DEV) view of the model.

 

The Foundations of Capability class is a strict prerequisite. (It's where you get that "existing knowledge" mentioned above.)

 

(CMMI V1.3 fans: The V2 rough equivalent of the three-day Introduction to CMMI V1.3 is the two-day Foundations of Capability followed by the appropriate one-day Building Excellence course [Development or Services].) 

 

This course is currently only available from us through live, virtual instructor-led training using Zoom.

Who Should Attend

This class should be attended by anyone who has had Foundations of Capability and may be:

  • Heavily involved in CMMI-DEV V2-based improvement

  • A candidate CMMI-DEV V2 appraisal team member

  • Interested in becoming a Certified CMMI Associate or Certified CMMI Professional, and would like to know more about CMMI-DEV for the exam.

  • Simply interested in learning about CMMI Development V2.
