This workshop course helps PMO teams, project managers, and R&D leads measure software projects. Although equations and formulas are involved, the focus is on the understanding and practical application of initiating measurements in real-life projects. Moreover, this workshop covers the interpretation and communication of measurement results, both informally and in the form of dashboards.
