Certified Business Analysis Professional (CBAP) — Question 246

What requirements elicitation involves carefully selected stakeholders and subject matter experts for a short, intensive period (usually for one to a few days) to define and document the requirements for a solution?

Answer options

• A. Many-to-many interviews
• B. Requirements workshop
• C. Focus group
• D. Prototyping

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer, Requirements workshop, is designed for intensive collaboration among stakeholders and experts to quickly gather and document requirements. Many-to-many interviews are less structured and can take longer, while focus groups typically gather opinions rather than define specific requirements. Prototyping involves creating an initial version of the solution rather than directly eliciting requirements from stakeholders.
