Practical Specification Writing

The task of creating an effective specification is a project in its own right. Anyone who has been tasked with creating a specification knows that it is a major undertaking and something that needs to be right first time, every time.

The origin of the English word 'specification' derives from the original Roman word 'specificare' which means to make a species, in other words, to define precisely.

Precisely defining your specification is vital to ensure the success of a project. Get it right and the benefits are immense, get it wrong and the cost can be high.

GA's practical specification writing course equips delegates with all the skills they need to ensure that their specifications are clear, accurate and will deliver the ultimate goal they set out to achieve.
