Modes of Delivery
Team/Corporate Training
Our Corporate training is carefully structured to help executives keep ahead of rapidly evolving business environments.Description
Software systems are becoming increasingly difficult to measure and understand. As they increase in complexity, there needs to be an efficient method that can be used to understand and communicate software size needs. The Function Point Index helps to evaluate and measure a development project, which helps in the optimization, planning, and effective management of software production.
Function Points quantify software functions in meaningful terms, and can be readily applied across diverse development environments. Accurate evaluations using FPA can help IT teams in moving toward best practices in the management of software products. By optimizing processes, timely deliveries of higher quality can be ensured.
Our course in Software Size Estimation and Measurement using IFPUG FPA teaches you how to measure the size and complexity of a software product using the Function Point Index.
On successful completion of the course, you will receive a Course Completion Certificate from KnowledgeHut with Credits (1 credit per hour of training).
What you will learn:
- Learn the fundamentals of Function Point (FP) Counting
- Get guidelines, hints, and examples to understand FP Counting
- Learn to communicate more effectively with the business user groups
- Reduce overtime
- Learn to establish an inventory of all transactions and files of a current project or application
- Learn how to size software applications
- Understand the unit cost of a software application or project and use it to compare tools, languages, platforms quantitatively instead of subjectively
- Understand the use of Function Point in software estimation through case studies
- Learn the use and limitations of Function Point techniques
You will also get:
- 1-day instructor-led classroom training
- Earn 8 PDUs
- Downloadable e-book

I successfully transitioned my career I am a SDE who was unhappy with my job. I took a giant leap of faith and transitioned to a Data Science career after completing KnowledgeHut’s Data Science bootcamp. I love the challenges and the paycheck! Thank you Knowledgehut for giving me the confidence that I could do it. All of you who are not too happy with your present role- there's a whole world of opportunity out there. Take the first step.
Attended Data Science Bootcamp workshop in July 2021The learning system set up everything for me. I wound up working on projects I've never done and never figured I could.
Attended Back-End Development Bootcamp workshop in April 2021I know from first-hand experience that you can go from zero and just get a grasp on everything as you go and start building right away.
Attended Back-End Development Bootcamp workshop in April 2021Overall, the training session at KnowledgeHut was a great experience. I learnt many things. I especially appreciate the fact that KnowledgeHut offers so many modes of learning and I was able to choose what suited me best. My trainer covered all the topics with live examples. I'm glad that I invested in this training.
Attended PMP® Certification workshop in May 2020Everything was well organized. I would definitely refer their courses to my peers as well. The customer support was very interactive. As a small suggestion to the trainer, it will be better if we have discussions in the end like Q&A sessions.
Attended PMP® Certification workshop in April 2020My special thanks to the trainer for his dedication and patience. I learned many things from him. I would also thank the support team for their help. It was well-organised, great work Knowledgehut team!
Attended Certified ScrumMaster (CSM)® workshop in July 2020The workshop held at KnowledgeHut last week was very interesting. I have never come across such workshops in my career. The course materials were designed very well with all the instructions were precise and comprehenisve. Thanks to KnowledgeHut. Looking forward to more such workshops.
Attended Certified ScrumMaster (CSM)® workshop in January 2020The teaching methods followed by Knowledgehut is really unique. The best thing is that I missed a few of the topics, and even then the trainer took the pain of taking me through those topics in the next session. I really look forward to joining KnowledgeHut soon for another training session.

Function Point Analysis (FPA) is a technique to break systems into smaller components, so they can be better understood and analyzed. This FPA methodology provides an objective, comparative measure that assists in the evaluation, planning, management and control of software production. Our training provides a complete and in-depth understanding of the Function Point Analysis technique based on the IFPUG Release 4.3 standard. You will learn the basics of how function points measure software by quantifying their user functionality based on the logical design, and how this method provides a structured technique for problem solving.
