The IREB community is an international, open community of experienced professionals in the context of Requirements Engineering and Digital Design. As part of this community, you can benefit from exchganging ideas and knowledge and from collaboration, and, together with IREB, you can promote a professional approach.
Acquire comprehensive skills in Requirements Engineering. The CPRE training content teaches you how to handle requirements confidently and in a targeted way - in both classic and agile environments. Worldwide training, worldwide acceptance.
Design attractive, economically viable digital solutions with special perspectives and approaches. DDP training provides you with the necessary skills for this. Digital solutions - sustainable and innovative.
Take advantage of our unique source of knowledge on Requirements Engineering, agile concepts, digitialization, and related topics. RE the magazine is available online and free of charge. Published by IREB, written by the community for the community.
IREB is an official media partner of the Digitale Leute Summit 2025!
Digitale Leute Summit is the only cross-functional professional education and networking event focused on software product development. This event will bring together Software Engineers, UX-Designers, Product- and Digital Managers to exchange knowledge, experiences, and fresh perspectives on building successful digital products.
At IREB, we strongly believe in fostering communities where professionals can grow and learn from each other. Partnering with the Digitale Leute Summit gives us the chance to support an event that aligns perfectly with our mission: advancing Requirements Engineering and Digital Design worldwide.
Members of the IREB Community receive a 15% discount on summit tickets. Contact us to receive your code.
Lab Journey: How Requirements Engineering makes the LIS changeover a success
The introduction of a new laboratory information system (LIS) changes processes and places high demands on organizations.
The “Lab Journey” event organized by the IREB Community Switzerland uses a practical example to show how Requirements Engineering provides structured support for the LIS change, from requirements gathering to implementation. The focus is on proven methods, experiences from highly regulated industries, and insights into complex project environments.
The meet-up will conclude with an open discussion and time for networking.
The IREB Community Germany invites everyone interested in Requirements Engineering, Business Analysis, and related topics to a meetup in Frankfurt. The aim is to facilitate exchange, new perspectives, and valuable networking within the community.
Requirements Engineering lays the foundation for successful digital solutions. But how do requirements become viable concepts? David Gilbert will discuss this in his presentation “Strategy & Solution – A conceptual framework for digital design in companies.” Since 2015, as Chief User Experience Architect in the IT division of Deutsche Bahn, he has been designing the connection between system- and user-oriented software design. At IREB, David is a member of the Digital Design working group.
The meeting will be chaired by Gareth Rogers, Ambassador of the IREB Community Germany.
Oliver Hehlert and Gareth Rogers, ambassadors of the IREB Community Germany, invite you to the next roundtable! Together with Christian Bock (ZIEHL-ABEGG), they will take a critical look at the rapid development of generative AI tools in Requirements Engineering. Tools that formulate requirements in minutes, analyze stakeholder feedback, or deliver design proposals.
What sounds like a dream for every project team also entails risks. After all, a fluently formulated text does not necessarily mean a common understanding.
How can AI be integrated sensibly without losing human coordination? or Where does automation end and where does genuine shared knowledge begin? are just two examples of the questions that will be discussed together at the roundtable.
The roundtable will be held in German.

What would IREB be without a worldwide network that appreciates the added value of the CPRE and DDP certification programs and supports the training courses?
Around the world, our recognized training providers, certifiers, and partner program participants help you to expand your expertise and take a decisive step towards greater professional success.
The International Institute of Business Analysis (IIBA) defines business analysis as “the practice of enabling change in the context of an enterprise by defining needs and recommending solutions that deliver value to stakeholders” [1]. This process relies heavily on effective communication and understanding of stakeholder needs, with particular emphasis on active listening. In this article, we will explore why these skills are essential for business analysts and how they can overcome some typical barriers to active listening. We will also highlight the benefits of these practices in fostering better relationships and creating a positive work environment.
In this paper, we will show how the SysML modeling language can be useful to complement the requirements process, i.e. to better define and trace requirements. The Systems Modeling Language (SysML: www.omgsysml.org) is a general-purpose graphical modeling language, defined by the Object Management Group (OMG), based on the well-known Unified Modeling Language (UML: www.uml.org). It is used for specifying, analyzing, designing and verifying complex systems, and is designed to provide simple but powerful constructs for modeling a wide range of systems engineering problems. It is particularly effective in specifying requirements: the structure, behavior, allocations and constraints on system properties that support engineering analysis.
