Transforming DX: Trainocate's New Course for Non-IT Professionals

In the contemporary business landscape where digital transformation (DX) is paramount, companies frequently face challenges such as system development delays and post-launch complications. A significant cause of these issues stems from the inadequate awareness and lack of knowledge among non-IT departments, who are pivotal in defining business requirements. To address this challenge, Trainocate Inc., headquartered in Shinjuku, Tokyo, has launched a new training course titled "Requirements Definition for Non-IT Departments: Skills for Effectively Communicating Business Requirements to Developers".

This course is tailored for employees in non-IT departments who are responsible for driving DX initiatives. It aims to empower these individuals with the skills necessary to engage proactively in system development processes. True digital transformation that significantly enhances business efficacy requires the active participation of user departments, making this new program essential.

The Course: Bridging the Gap Between IT and Non-IT

The "Requirements Definition for Non-IT Departments" course combines e-learning with practical hands-on training. To facilitate a smoother internal shift towards digitalization, it is crucial that personnel in user departments accurately comprehend business requirements and communicate them effectively to developers. Specific competencies that attendees will acquire include:

• - An overview of the system development process and key involvement points.
• - Techniques and methodologies for defining requirements.
• - Creation and application of Requests for Information (RFI) and Requests for Proposals (RFP).
• - Effective review methods for specification documents.

The course employs blended learning techniques that maximize educational benefits while minimizing disruptions to ongoing business operations. Participants will begin by engaging with foundational concepts in system development through online modules, ensuring all attendees share a common knowledge base before entering focused practical sessions.

Immediate Benefits: What Participants Can Expect

Those fortunate enough to attend a preview version of this course have highlighted three immediate areas of growth they experienced post-training:

1. Clarity in Communication: Participants learned specific methodologies to communicate business requirements to system developers and stakeholders effectively. This newfound capability will enhance their future interactions with IT departments and vendors.

2. Common Ground with IT Professionals: Attendees reported a deepened understanding of IT thinking and methodologies, which has elevated the overall digital literacy within their non-IT departments, fostering more productive collaborations.

3. Practical Skills for Daily Operations: Many participants expressed a desire they had to take this course before engaging in prior system development projects, noting the course allowed them to connect theoretical knowledge with their practical experiences.
