Eliciting Requirements Overview

The crux of effective requirement elicitation in any project is understanding and delivering what stakeholders truly need—even when those needs differ from what they initially state. Strong elicitation skills help business analysts and project professionals distinguish between real and stated needs. In organizations where elicitation is approached with skill and structure, stakeholders benefit from shared expectations and clearer communication, while teams experience more collaborative, efficient, and productive project environments.

This requirement elicitation course builds core competencies in elicitation techniques, helping participants gather, analyze, and document requirements accurately and efficiently. Whether you're new to business analysis or a seasoned business analyst, this course equips you to elicit requirements with confidence and precision across any domain or project management context.

Note: This course has been approved by PMI for 7 PDUs and by IIBA for 7 CDUs.
