Lunch and Learn Series Technique Boutique:
Lightweight Documentation - Heavyweight Benefits

An IIBA Chapters Virtual Event

Presented by IIBA Halifax, Ottawa-Outaouais, and Palmetto Chapters

Tuesday February 8, 2022
11:30 am - 12:30 pm (EST)

Get ready for the next session of our Lunch and Learn series! Here’s an opportunity to take a break from your workday to enhance your BA skillset and share your knowledge with your fellow BAs. In our first Technique Boutique session of 2022 (hosted with our sister chapters, IIBA Ottawa-Outaouais and IIBA Halifax), we will explore lightweight documentation - a common technique used in Agile approaches.

Documentation is often a dirty word. “I’ll do it later”. But there is no later. It doesn’t get done and is a major contributor to technical debt and kills agility. This session will show how to leverage automated documentation and create reusable documentation that supports continuous improvement and agility.
