Customized Team Training

Inteq’s Advanced Data Modeling training course provides participants with the deep knowledge, critical thinking skills and experienced judgment to successfully engage cross-enterprise business rules and requirements.

The concept of “engaging” business rules and requirements transcends the three core concepts of analysis – identification, analysis and specification of business rules and requirements (all of which are essential building blocks of enterprise analysis).

Inteq's Advanced Data Modeling training course enables participants to move beyond project specific rules and requirements to abstracting and generalizing the rules and requirements to enable cross-enterprise solutions.

This requires highly evolved critical thinking skills to understand the essence of business rules and requirements; and requires sophisticated judgment to discern and make essential distinctions between unique localized (departmental, project specific) rules and requirements and the requirements applicable across the enterprise.

“Engagement” requires the translation of the rules and requirements into logical data structures at the right level of abstractions to enable flexible, extensive, robust solutions that can rapidly adapt as business rules and requirements continually change.

Inteq’s Advanced Data Modeling training course is about business analysis to support enterprise business solutions - not about the nuances of a specific physical database design.

Advanced Data Modeling’s concepts apply across a wide range of initiatives from modernization of existing systems, development of new systems, implementation of vendor ERP solutions and business process reengineering.

The concepts in this course are based on years of best practices gleaned from the spectrum of industries and subject matter domains across commercial and public sectors. It’s your roadmap for engaging cross-enterprise business rules enabling enterprise-level solutions.

The courses comprising Inteq's Business Analyst Series are IIBA approved in connection with business analyst certification as part of IIBA’s Certified Business Analyst Professional requirements.
