UML for the IT Business Analyst Training Course

This course builds upon existing knowledge of UML. During the training, we emphasize the practical application of UML in object-oriented analysis for government workflows. The focus is on enhancing skills that align with public sector governance and accountability.

This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is designed for government professionals who wish to leverage AI to enhance their systems and software engineering work. If you are exploring ways to use AI to significantly accelerate your systems engineering processes, this course is tailored for you.

Participants will model a Scanning Electron Microscope (both hardware and software) as their lab exercise, learning how to formulate the right questions (i.e., prompts) to receive effective assistance from AI in constructing the model.

By the end of this 3-day class, participants:

• will understand how to utilize AI as a "subject matter expert" in defining system and software models for government applications.
• will be familiar with "the four pillars of SysML" (Requirements, Structure, Behavior, and Parametrics)
• will also know how to structure their SysML models to account for software, including:
  • generating User Interface Code from Behavior Models,
  • generating Database Code from Structure Models,
  • generating Microcontroller Code from State Machines.

This course is tailored to provide a comprehensive understanding of the Systems Modeling Language (SysML), its implementation using MagicDraw/Cameo software, foundational Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) simulation methods, and best practices in MBSE for government applications. The curriculum is designed to align with public sector workflows, governance, and accountability standards.

This course, designed to align with public sector workflows and governance, combines lectures, demonstrations, and interactive laboratories to provide a comprehensive overview of building and maintaining an Enterprise Architecture (EA) using the Unified Architecture Framework (UAF) version 1.2 for government. The curriculum emphasizes practical skills and best practices essential for effective EA management in federal, state, and local government environments.

It covers essential Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) simulation techniques and best practices, tailored specifically for government professionals. Participants will learn how to create templates and generate reports within the MagicDraw/Cameo tool suite, as well as gain insights into the functionality of macros and scripts in MagicDraw and their various applications. This training is aimed at enhancing the skills necessary for effective systems engineering in a public sector environment.

The course is designed to teach the fundamentals of the Systems Modeling Language (SysML), its application through the MagicDraw/Cameo software, basic Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) simulation techniques, and best practices in MBSE. This training is also tailored to provide professionals with a background in architectural simulation, an introduction to the Simulation Toolkit plugin, the simulation of various diagram types, and how to integrate these simulations to automate the architecture for government.

This course is designed to teach the fundamentals of the Systems Modeling Language (SysML) and its application through the MagicDraw/Cameo software, along with basic Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) simulation techniques and best practices in MBSE for government. The training covers core concepts and features such as validation rules, validation suites, and model metrics. Additionally, it introduces participants to the essential aspects of developing and utilizing model queries in MagicDraw/Cameo.

This course is designed to provide an in-depth understanding of the Systems Modeling Language (SysML), its practical application through the MagicDraw/Cameo software, and foundational Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) simulation techniques. Participants will also learn best practices in MBSE, ensuring alignment with public sector workflows and governance. The training includes a comprehensive introduction to the core concepts and features of CATIA No Magic’s Teamwork Cloud, as well as an overview of Domain Specific Languages (DSL) within MagicDraw, tailored specifically for government use.

This course, designed for government, combines lectures, demonstrations, and interactive laboratories to provide a comprehensive overview of the foundational principles for constructing and sustaining an Enterprise Architecture (EA) using the Unified Architecture Framework (UAF) version 1.2.

A course designed for government professionals focusing on utilizing the Cameo Simulation Toolkit to model behaviors, conduct trade studies, and automate architectural processes. Additional modules cover requirements verification, the Action Language Helper, and user-friendly graphical interfaces for simulation tasks.

This course offers a blend of module-based lectures, instructor demonstrations, and hands-on laboratories. Our trainers are seasoned professionals who bring a balanced approach to both theoretical concepts and practical application.

Take-Aways:

• Understanding the purpose of ontologies
• Insight into the advantages of knowledge graphs
• Practical experience with Protégé and concept modeling techniques, tailored for government use

Objective:

To assist analysts and designers in the System Engineering domain in understanding how to efficiently gather requirements and proceed through the embedded software design implementation based on system specifications using UML 2 and SysML.

This three-day training aims to help system analysts articulate their needs effectively and enable designers to develop the appropriate architectural design of the system based on these requirements. The training is designed specifically for government professionals to enhance their capabilities in this domain.

The resulting system architecture provides a high level of agility to the embedded system software, making it more adaptable to changes. It ensures coherent traceability of business rules encapsulated in system functions and aligns with the usage choices (use cases) of end-users, all the way through to the software implementation level.

This course is offered in two variants to provide a practical understanding of how systems can be modeled using the latest version of OMG's Systems Modeling Language (SysML) specification. The notation and underlying semantics of SysML are explained in a manner that enables students to apply what they learn to any suitable system modeling method or tool for government use.

This course is designed to instruct participants in the Systems Modeling Language (SysML) from a review perspective, including an introduction to the Cameo Collaborator tool for government. The curriculum emphasizes alignment with public sector workflows and governance, ensuring that attendees gain a comprehensive understanding of SysML and its practical applications.

With the emergence of highly complex distributed systems, the complexity of a single system has shifted to the complexity of the architectural framework encompassing multiple systems. This course examines the relationship between Software Architecture and Technical Enterprise Architecture, two areas that are interrelated but currently not well documented. For instance, breaking down a complex monolithic system into two systems communicating via web services can trigger significant changes in both the new systems and the architecture connecting them.

This course will explore trade-offs, as well as common patterns and solutions for managing complex systems and communication within and between them, specifically tailored to enhance effectiveness and efficiency for government operations.
