Client Quotes & Testimonials
Some quotes on the Business Requirements Gathering & Writing training provided by Pierson:
BA Project Summit, CNA Insurance
Requirements Gathering: From Chaos to Excellence.
Jeffrey Manhardt, M&T Bank

I would highly recommend the Pierson Requirements Group
Natalie Ehrenreich, AT&T
As a business analyst, I thought that Joy provided a lot of useful tools to utilize during requirements gathering in an agile environment. I also thought that the hands on exercises were very helpful…
CNA made a presentation at the Chicago Project Summit 2007 on their transformation experiences. The title of the session was called ?Requirements Gathering: From Chaos to Excellence.? The objectives of the session were to share their requirements gathering process, explain how they overcame the organizational barriers and how they adapted and learned. Joy Matthews, from Pierson Requirements Group, trained over 300 people to get them to this state of excellence. They have released projects with zero defects!
The hands on experience and class discussions were great! The instructor was very effective and had a lot of knowledge to pass on – I like the learn-as-you-go setup. The class size was perfect- I would not recommend having more than 10 in any class. It was mentally stimulating – Also, the group feedback for each person at the end of a facilitation practice exercise was excellent.!
This was the best training I have received in my professional career!
Very informative. Corporate wide training classes should be instituted.
The instructor is great. Material is well organized and 100% relevant to my work. Its relationship to our company’s process is extremely helpful.
The instructor’s method of teaching is very interactive.
I highly recommend this training for other employees as well as Business End Users.
I would like to see all the other groups in IT trained in JAD and think the future success of our projects would be greatly improved by using JAD.
This is an excellent class. It is refreshing to see a class realistically and iteratively approach all areas of the software development process. It is a true tool for getting the requirements nailed down early in the process and it promotes buy in from the business community because they are involved from the start.
The training provided real world experience and insights from the instructor.
