General Trainings
Courses in Global Configuration Management (GCM) for IBM DOORS Next and other ELM applications. Learn to configure and use GCM to manage artifacts across multiple projects and divisions.
Courses in IBM Global Configuration Management
We offer training in configuration management using IBM Global Configuration Management (GCM). You will learn how to manage local and global configurations, create baselines, and administer components and streams across multiple projects.
IBM ELM Global Configuration Management
In this training, you will learn how to enable and leverage Global Configuration Management (GCM) for IBM DOORS Next within a development organization that spans multiple divisions and projects.
The concepts are general, and the global configuration can be expanded to also embed artifacts from other ELM applications, such as ETM, EWM and Rhapsody. By the end of the workshop, you will have a grasp of the building blocks of GCM and be able to configure GCM for your organizational needs.
The workshop is intended for program managers, program office representatives, enterprise-level system architects, and others in position of cross-project or cross-program governance within development organisations with parallel initiatives.
