User Story Writing Workshop
Email us for details of bespoke, on-site training for your team.
User Stories have, for a number of years, played an essential part of many teams' agile projects, enabling them to capture and manage requirements in a time-effective, collaborative and evolutionary manner.
This one-day course will focus on how to harness the potential of using a user-story driven approach to delivering your project. It is a very practical workshop, coaching attendees to produce real user stories and product backlogs in the classroom, providing real tangible benefits to attendees’ projects straight away.
The course will walk through the "story of a story" from vision to delivery and the core components of a user story will be explored in detail. Teams will often use this as a highly effective means of kick-starting a project or release, getting the team together and establishing the vision, user roles and product backlog for the project.
What will I get from this course:
- A comprehensive understanding of User Stories
- A guide and tips on how to write more effective User Stories
- Practical application of the techniques to your project context
Who Should Attend:
This course is aimed at anyone starting, or currently involved in, agile projects. Business Analysts, Product Owners and ScrumMasters will find this course particularly usefulAgenda
