This webinar is the third in a 4 part series series on Risk Management by Solutions Cube.  Although this module is a part of the series – each module in the series can be taken individually.

Many project teams describe their Risk Management effort as a Risk Mitigation activity to overcome negative project risks.

Risk Mitigation is only one of the 8 different responses considered by project teams who are successful in their risk management effort. Teams who consider all 8 risk responses when creating their risk register are more effective in exploiting risk opportunities as well as minimizing or preventing risk threats.

The Risk Management Series of in depth webinars will introduce participants to techniques for defining a Risk Management Process and using this process to progressively build a Risk Register including: identifying risks using a Risk Meta-Language, Assessing Risks with quantitative techniques, understanding the 8 risk responses and selecting the appropriate Risk Response for the project risks and monitoring risks throughout the project.

Solutions Cube Group’s Selecting the Appropriate Risk Responses webinar will help your project teams understand the differences between the 8 risk response types and when it is appropriate to use each response.

This session will help you Select the Appropriate Risk responses.

In this 1 hour in-depth webinar participants learn:

• How to complete the risk register with appropriate risk responses
• Why relying on risk mitigation as the only response to risk creates more risk exposure
• How to differentiate between the Risk Response types available for managing project risk
• Techniques for creating contingency plans as part of the response effort
• When to use each response type when planning the risk management effort

Learn how to increase the likelihood of positive risk opportunities occurring and how to reduce or avoid the impact of negative project risks.

Provider:  Modern Analyst

Many Agile business analysts are hesitant to employ certain requirements elicitation and development techniques such as user stories and use case studies because they are traditionally considered aspects of the Waterfall or traditional method of Project Management.

The overwhelming responsibility of the business analyst, no matter what method is being used, is to help stakeholders identify their needs and translate them into requirements.

Both use cases and user stories should be leveraged to determine the most appropriate business solution to bring value to the customer.

This webinar addresses the questions of how use cases and user stories can work in an Agile environment. The webinar also offers helpful insight into the steps to take when using them

Learn:

• Requirements visioning-the key to using use cases in Agile
• Why and when to utilize use cases in Agile

Webinar attendees will learn about when to use ‘use cases’ and when to use ‘user stories’, within requirements gathering, to gain maximum value from both. This webinar offers tips and techniques that can be used today to gather stronger requirements.

Presenters: Peter Schmidt (LinkedIn profile), PMP, ACP, CPL  spearheads specialized solution development and services delivery for ESI, participates in the development and deployment of ESI’s new Agile curriculum, and works to strategically identify and promote ESI’s client successes in operational performance improvement.

SHORT NOTICE WEBINAR
Live Webinar December 15th, 2016 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM EST
Activity Type: Education – Course or Training  1 Hour  1 PDU free
Provider: O’Reilly

Implementing a continuous delivery (CD) pipeline is not trivial, and the introduction of container technology to the development stack can introduce additional challenges and requirements.

In this webcast Daniel Bryant will look at the steps that are essential for creating an effective pipeline for creating and deploying containerized applications.

Topic covered include:

• The impact of containers on CD
• Creating a container pipeline (including functional and nonfunctional testing)
• Lessons learned the hard way

A supporting O’Reilly report “Containerizing Continuous Delivery in Java” is also available, and this contains instructions and code for how to create a Jenkins-based continuous delivery pipeline that takes a series of Java applications and containerizes them, ready for functional and nonfunctional testing, and ultimately, deployment.

Presenter: Daniel Bryant, (LinkedIn profile) Chief Scientist, OpenCredo and CTO at SpectoLabs;  currently specialises in enabling agility within organisations by  facilitating continuous delivery. Daniel’s current technical expertise focuses on ‘DevOps’ tooling, cloud/container platforms, and microservice implementations. Daniel also contributes to several open source projects, writes for InfoQ, O’Reilly, and Voxxed, and regularly presents at international conferences such as QCon, Devoxx and JavaOne.
