At a glance

Artificial intelligence is fundamentally changing requirements engineering - from the elicitation to the management of requirements. In the AI4RE Training you will learn how to use modern AI tools to make your work more efficient and precise. You will understand what is behind concepts such as Prompt Engineering, RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) or Large Language Models and how you can use them sensibly in everyday RE work.

The training is based on the official IREB Study Guide. The absolute added value for you: Your trainers are the official co-authors of this curriculum. In this course we will be Extreme focus on practice. We provide you with the necessary technical understanding in the compact certification course (day 1) and apply this knowledge directly in the optional intensive practical training (day 2): How AI supports you in interviews, documentation or quality assurance, what risks and limitations you should be aware of, and how you can combine human expertise with machine intelligence.

After the course, you can use your knowledge in the official IREB examination and show you the AI4RE Micro-Credential secure - a digital badge for your enhanced competence in dealing with artificial intelligence in requirements engineering.

IREB AI4RE AI in Requirements Engineering

Course content (The 1+1 model)

We solve the dilemma between stubborn exam preparation and real practical application with our modular structure.

Day 1: Compact certification course (focus on IREB AI4RE & practice) The first day is all about your exam success and trying out the AI tools. We will guide you through the modules of the official curriculum in a practical way so that you can pass the micro-credential with confidence.

  • AI basics & technologies: Understand RAG, fine-tuning and how LLMs work at their core.

  • Prompt Engineering: Learn essential techniques such as Role-Task, Chain-of-Thought and Zero-/Few-Shot.

  • Application scenarios (hands-on): Experience the use of AI in the determination, documentation, validation and management of requirements and try out the tools for yourself.

  • Risks & Ethics: Master challenges such as bias, data protection and hallucinations.

Day 2: Hands-On Lab & «Bring Your Own Case» (optional intensive day) Here we leave pure theory behind us. You bring your own anonymized artefacts from your day-to-day project work - be it untidy backlogs, interview transcripts or complex specifications.

  • Advanced Prompt Architecture: Build complex, multi-level prompts that deliver consistent and reliable results.

  • Focus on your case: We apply AI methods directly to the problems you bring with you.

  • Generative modeling & prototyping: Let the AI create visual models from your texts.

  • Quality Assurance: Use the AI as a merciless reviewer for your requirements to kill errors early on.

    Format

     

    Agenda

    9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.

     

    Approach and didactics

    Our training is primarily designed to be interactive. Short theoretical blocks are followed by a variety of practice-oriented exercises, which are completed both individually and in small groups. The results are then reflected on collectively.

    We focus on lively, inspiring learning and deliberately avoid a tiring "slide battle".

    Our focus is on the mutual exchange of knowledge between participants and the long-term, practical benefits of the newly acquired knowledge. The positive feedback from our course participants speaks for itself.

    In addition to collaboration boards, slides and exercises, we use gamification elements.

     

    Prerequisites

    For successful participation in the course, basic knowledge of requirements engineering is helpful in order to understand the use of AI methods in the right context. To help you place the use of AI methods in the right context, we recommend the course IREB Certified Professional for Requirements Engineering - Foundation Level.

    Basic knowledge of information technology and data analysis is also an advantage.

    An essential prerequisite is the openness and willingness to engage with new technologies and concepts and to integrate innovative approaches into everyday working life.

    Target group

    The training is perfect for you if you live in requirements engineering and want to use AI specifically to work smarter and faster. There are no formal prerequisites, but RE basics (such as the CPRE Foundation Level) will help you enormously.

    • Requirements Engineers & Business Analysts: Tired of spending hours manually consolidating stakeholder feedback? Use LLMs to extract requirements from interviews and recognize contradictions immediately.

    • Product Owner & Product Manager: Scale your backlog, outsource routine tasks and write precise, testable user stories in record time.

    • System analysts & architects: Reduce your cognitive load. Learn how to automatically generate system models (such as UML) from texts.

    • Project managers & IT consultants: Learn how to integrate AI into your company processes in a secure, data protection-compliant and ethically responsible way.

    "I highly recommend Michael! His expertise and teaching style made learning about IREB not only manageable, but truly enjoyable. He has an incredible ability to break down complex concepts into clear, understandable components, making everyone in the session feel confident and well prepared. Michael's passion for the subject shines through in every aspect of his teaching. He is patient, approachable and always willing to answer questions or clarify doubts. His real-world examples and practical insights made the material come alive and gave me a deeper understanding of the IREB framework. Thanks to Michael's guidance, I now feel well equipped to apply what I have learned in my professional role. If you are considering a course or workshop with Obvious Works, don't hesitate - you are in the best hands."
