| Course Abstract: |
To meet business and user expectations of the Web, people need more than the Unified Process. They must integrate strategy, branding, marketing, usability, information architecture, creative design, and content with software engineering activities. Learning how these varied roles can productively work together is a significant challenge for many teams.
This course reveals the best practices for Web development and how they integrate with the Unified Process framework. Participants will learn about new roles, activities, and artifacts typically produced in Web projects and how they relate to use cases and other UML artifacts.

Participants will leave the course full of practical advice for enhancing the Unified Process and streamlining it for different types of Web development projects. |
