Education and training courses for verification and validation (V&V)
Integration, Verification & Validation - From the Systems and Software Consortium Web Site:
"This one-and-a-half day offering combines the Consortium's popular Integration, Verification & Validation (IV&V) and Early Validation of Requirements (EVR) courses. The IV&V content introduces the concepts and methods for system Integration, Verification and Validation within the system engineering lifecycle. The course addresses the differences between validation and verification and the role of integration in the V&V process. The EVR content introduces the concepts and value of validating requirements with customers early in the system engineering lifecycle. The student learns the considerations involved in planning and executing early validation, as well as the approaches and methods including rapid prototyping, computer modeling, simulation labs, and hot mock-ups."
Software verification and validation techniques are introduced and their applicability discussed. Approaches to integrating these techniques into comprehensive verification and validation plans are also addressed. This curriculum module provides an overview needed to understand in-depth curriculum modules in the verification and validation area.
