Identify risks in your organisation and improve performance with CMMI training at the JCSE

Disorganised, disconnected manual processes hold companies back. Gain better control over business risks and dramatically improve service quality regardless of your company’s profile with internationally accredited CMMI (Capability Maturity Model Integration) training from the Joburg Centre for Software Engineering (JCSE) in partnership with the CMMI Institute at the Carnegie Mellon University (CMU).

Promoting the adoption of a number of best practice models and methods in South Africa, the CMMI training will assist companies to mature their processes in order to develop high-quality software and systems.

Prof Barry Dwolatzky, Director, JCSE says that CMMI provides guidance for efficient, effective improvement across multiple process disciplines in an organisation: “It benefits everyone by providing a common, integrated vision of improvement and ultimately results in improved performance that means decreased costs, improved on-time delivery, improved productivity, improved quality, and improved customer satisfaction.”

Another benefit he says is return on investment. “Such a program more than pays for the monetary investment required. These are all reasons why CMMI is the choice for process improvement in multiple industries.”
