CMPIC Certification course 8 SCM

Strategies, Techniques and Tools Certification

This course provides a basic introduction to the theory, principles, and techniques of Software Configuration Management (SCM) as it applies to the entire software lifecycle. It addresses the application of SCM in a wide variety of approaches to software development and maintenance, from traditional to agile. The course illustrates the SCM strategies, techniques, and required tool capabilities that support each of the activities in the software development life cycle. The student will also gain a value-based understanding of which SCM techniques are most useful for the development approach and tool capabilities that currently exist in their company. The course concludes by providing an SCM implementation framework for planning and selecting the optimal SCM strategy and tool capabilities for both the project and organizational levels.
