Requirements Engineering Fundamentals by Klaus Pohl |
Foreword to Requirements Engineering Fundamentals
With Requirements Engineering Fundamentals, you are holding the official textbook of the Certified Professional for Requirements Engineering (CPRE) – Foundation Level certification in your hands.
The 2nd edition of this book is aligned with the curriculum (version 2.2) of the International Requirements Engineering Board e.V. (IREB) and the IREB glossary.
In addition, some minor defects of the 1st edition have been corrected. A short introduction to the IREB and the certification process can be found in the previous section “The Certified Professional for Requirements Engineering (CPRE) Exam”.
The aim of this book is to aid you in your preparation for the certification examination of the Certified Professional for Requirements Engineering.
The book is suited for your individual preparation for the examination as well as for companion literature to training courses offered by training providers.
In addition to the book, you should consider the information about the preparation for the certification examination published on the IREB.
That additional information reflects updates of the curriculum (after version 2.2) and potentially amends this book with respect to some areas of interest. Errata to this book is published on the IREB website.
Our decision to author this book collaboratively was not unjustified. The book at hand is meant to integrate long-lasting practical experiences with educational and research knowledge concerning the topic of requirements engineering.
in particular for the Foundation Level of the Certified Professional for Requirements Engineering. We have chosen not to reference the two books listed above in the individual chapters of this book.
You can find detailed additional information on the topics of this book in both of the books mentioned above.
This book was made possible with the help of a number of people. Our special thanks go to Dirk Schüpferling and Thorsten Weyer for their contributions to this book and their outstanding commitment,
without which this book would not have been possible. Many reviews and consistent support by other board members increased the quality of this book. We particularly thank all board members of the IREB for their active support.
