CPRE MOD Practitioner

IREB® CPRE Advanced Level

Requirements Modeling – Practitioner

The CPRE Advanced Level offered by IREB is modular. Currently, CPRE-FL professionals can acquire the Advanced Level Certificate in the respective independent modules of "RE@Agile", "Requirements Elicitation & Consolidation", "Requirements Management" and "Requirements Modeling".

Advanced Level is aimed at those who already hold the CPRE Foundation Level Certificate wishing to deepen their knowledge in a sub-discipline of requirements engineering or business analysis.

The CPRE Advanced Level module "Requirements Modeling" covers the subjects of model and modeling, information modeling, function and behavior modeling, scenario modeling as well as the handling of models and their embedding in the overall development process. The focus is on the concrete use of models to map information, functions, behavior and scenarios.

What requirements must be met?

The prerequisite for admission to the CPRE Advanced Level Practitioner examination is possession of the CPRE Foundation Level Certificate or the BCS Requirements Engineering Certificate.

What options are available for acquiring the CPRE-Advanced Level Practitioner Certificate?

Self-study:

To prepare for the CPRE Advanced Level exam, knowledge of the syllabus as well as the CPRE AL manual "Requirements Modeling" is useful. The manual provides extensive knowledge but is not a substitute for training. In order to pass the IREB® Certified Professional Advanced Level exam successfully, you will also need fundamental knowledge in the field of software development.
