• Software Change Request Management: Working knowledge of software change request management; ability to manage software product change requests from customers, prospective customers, vendors, and internal staff.
• User Acceptance Testing (UAT): Working knowledge of UAT activities, tasks, tools and techniques; ability to design, implement and evaluate acceptance tests for end-users.
