Introduction to CMMI - 3 Days

Course Description

The purpose of this course, which offered as a public or in-house course, is:

  • a required pre-requisite for anyone who will be on a CMMI Appraisal Team; and
  • an invaluable preparation for developers and implementers of processes to conform to the CMMI Model and
  • as an informative course for a management team to understand the processes to be implemented;
  • of vital interest to personnel who will perform the processes once implemented.

This course, created by the Carnegie Mellon Software Engineering Institute (SEI) and taught by an SEI trained and authorized ABS Quality Evaluations instructor, adheres to the following SEI course description:

This three-day course introduces systems and software engineering managers and practitioners, appraisal team members, and engineering process group (e.g., SEPG, EPG) members to CMMI® fundamental concepts. CMMI models are tools that help organizations improve their ability to develop and maintain quality products and services. CMMI models are an integration of best practices from proven discipline-specific process improvement models, including the CMM® for Software, EIA 731, and the Integrated Product Development CMM.

This course has been updated to be part of Version 1.2 of the CMMI Product Suite. The course was also improved to respond to change requests submitted by students, instructors, and others.

The course is composed of lectures and class exercises with ample opportunity for participant questions and discussions. After attending the course, participants will be able to describe the components of CMMI models and their relationships, discuss the process areas in CMMI models, and locate relevant information in the model.

How you will benefit

If you do not miss more than 4 hours of the course and participate as requested, you will:

  1. Be registered in the SEI Training Database which is checked by the SEI as a pre-requisite should you ever subsequently be nominated to be on a CMMI Appraisal Team.
  2. Receive an SEI Partner certificate of completion
  3. and optionally you may request Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) CEU credits and a certificate which is provided at a later date by CMU through the ABS instructor.
