Questions About Private Onsite Training
Our modularized approach offers our clients the option to pick and choose from a variety of topics to construct a training workshop that hones in on their specific needs.
This modularized approach provides greater flexibility and helps clients to manage training budgets more effectively and optimize training investments.
Upon request, we’ll train in any location world wide.
The number of attendees allowed can vary up or down depending on the training facility (venue), course duration, and audience experience level (anticipated interaction).
However, the minimum can be higher or lower depending on the audience experience level, training duration, and training topics (content).
Training costs at per-attendee rates usually include a Guaranteed Minimum number of attendees. For invoicing, the client guarantees a minimum number of attendees.
EXAMPLE
A client requests an onsite training session for 10 people, and agrees to a per-student rate of $200, and a guaranteed minimum number of attendees at 8.
If 11 people actually attend, the client is invoiced for $2200 (11 x $200). If only 7 people actually attend, the client is invoiced for $1600 (8 x $200).

Questions About Consulting
B) Our core competency is helping your organization implement a documented, repeatable requirements process. Your staff will adopt the requirements activities that need to get done. A particular template or tool is not the “process.” Rather, following a process means knowing what activities to do and when, and what deliverables to create and when. Don’t just take our word for it. Our clients will tell you, “The Quest process works.”
C) Requirements Quest measures our success by your success—literally! We help you put metrics in place so that you see the return on investment of your training dollars. We assist you in putting metrics in place to track and report improvement in your projects resulting from better requirements practices.
D) Quality requirements take a collaborative team effort. As such, Requirements Quest applies a role-based approach to training, which delivers training just in time to those who need it (typically one project team at a time prior to the start of a project). In addition to the “Business Analyst” role, your teams (including both business and technical subject matter experts) will learn how to work together on business requirements to get the project results you want.
E) Requirements Quest delivers on practical techniques that can be applied immediately after training. This translates to a significant, noticeable return on your training investment.
F) Requirements Quest’s instructors contact all students approximately 2 to 4 weeks following a training event. This is done to provide post-training support and answer students’ questions and concerns. Instructors are accessible to students following training on an on-going basis. Requirements Quest is your business analysis resource.
