The course serves two audiences. The primary audience is people who will be actively engaged in the elicitation and definition of software requirements. This includes systems, requirements, and business analysts. The secondary audience would be interested in taking this class because they are consumers of the software requirements and need to understand how to read, verify, interpret and plan with the software requirements of the system. This group includes project managers, software analysts and designers, QA designers and testers, and customers and users.
