The series of courses is designed so that a professional in a field outside the information technologies (financial, administrative or managerial) acquires the basic knowledge in Information Technology to be able to interact more profitably with the computer and telecommunications specialists of your company or other corporations with which you are related, being able to specify requirements, evaluate workloads and monitor results in a much more effective way.

The syllabus of the series is based on the CLEP Information Systems and Computer Applications exam.

In this course, you learn the basics of software project management, reviewing basic project management concepts and roles, system development lifecycle, tools and methods used in software development, standards. used in the development and the design of the user interface of a computer system.

I've been working with IT people for several years as business process specialist so I've learned on the job. I heard about many things you talked about but I lacked structure and methodology (namely according to project management). Thanks a lot for sharing this MOOC and even better with free exercices. It gives me a good overlook of the topics I should delve into.

This was an incredible course that covered all the basics for someone that came from a background with little experience in software development to an entry-level position as a business systems analyst. I can't wait to start building on the foundation of all the holes this course was able to fill! Thank you, EDX and Universitat Politècnica de València!!!!
