Review: Course Overview
This is the first of a four-part curriculum that prepares the learner for Exam 70-300. The course opens with an introduction to the MSF framework - its structure and modelling notations. It then covers the Envisioning phases, with particular coverage of its deliverables - the Vision/Scope Document and the Project Structure and Risk Assessment documents. The course then covers in detail the techniques of information gathering and modelling, and the Business, User and Operational requirements areas. Four Case Study NLOs are included that cover the main areas of the course. Elements of the .NET Framework are addressed at all critical points.
