Building Service ExcellencE
The official CMMI® Institute certified course, packed with our special bonuses
Why Take This Course
This one-day class builds upon your existing knowledge of CMMI V2 to provide you with a basic understanding of the CMMI Services (CMMI-SVC) view of the model.
The Foundations of Capability class is a strict pre-requisite. (It's where you get that "existing knowledge" mentioned above.)
This course is currently only available from us through live, virtual instructor-led training using Zoom.
(CMMI V1.3 fans: The V2 rough equivalent of the three-day Introduction to CMMI V1.3 is the two-day Foundations of Capability followed by the appropriate one-day Building Excellence course [Development or Services].)
