Training Software Risk Management

Training Software Risk Management

Software Risk Management is a 2-day course designed to provide a knowledge base and practical skills for anyone interested in implementing or improving Software Risk Management techniques and practices in their organization.  This course starts with an overview of software risk management basics, including definitions of risk management terminology, a discussion of the importance of software risk management and different types of software risks and the introduction of the software risk management process.

Course attendees will learn how to utilize various techniques for identifying and communicating software risk.  These skills will be practiced using team exercises that relate the learned techniques to the attendees own software development projects.  Attendees will learn to analyze their identified risks through exploring the risk’s context, estimating risk probabilities and losses, calculating risk exposure, and considering the risk timeframe.  Attendees will practice utilizing this analysis information to prioritize their lists of identified risks.

Course attendees will explore various risk handling techniques and learn how to define risk containment and contingency plans.  The implementation of risk handling actions will be discussed.  This course will explore the use of various types of reviews and metrics to track software risks.  The course ends with an overview of critical success factors and barriers to implementing a software risk management program and a discussion of risk management principles.

Method of Instruction: This course is taught through lecture and interactive discussion.  Actual examples from the software industry are utilized to make the information relevant.  Throughout this course, learned skills are practiced using team exercises.  The emphasis of this course is on techniques that allow the attendees to transition the skills learned in this course to their own work environments.

Course Objectives: Upon successful completion of this course attendees will be able to:

• Understand the basic terminology and techniques of Software Risk Management
• Identify software risks for your projects
• Analyze and prioritize your software risks
• Create a software risk management plan
• Take actions to mitigate software risks
• Track the status of your software risks
