OCSMP Accelerator SysML Training Course

Description

48 Hours of Video Instruction

48 hours of comprehensive, in-depth SysML training to allow participants to become model-based systems engineering (MBSE) practitioners and prepare them for the OMG Certified Systems Modeling Professional (OCSMP) Level 1 and Level 2 certification exams.

Overview

SysML, or Systems Modeling Language, is a standardized general-purpose modeling language designed specifically for systems engineering. It is an extension of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) tailored to address the needs of systems engineering. SysML provides a robust framework for specifying, analyzing, designing, verifying, and validating complex systems that may include hardware, software, information, processes, personnel, and facilities.

This course takes a comprehensive approach to teaching SysML and Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). Here are some key aspects of the course:

• Comprehensive Coverage: The course covers all nine types of SysML diagrams, helping participants visualize and communicate system designs effectively.
• Model Organization Techniques: It teaches model organization techniques using a commercial-grade modeling tool.
• Certification Preparation: The course prepares participants for the OMG Certified Systems Modeling Professional (OCSMP) certification exams, specifically the Model User (Level 1) and Model Builder: Fundamental (Level 2) exams.
• Interactive Learning: It includes 95 sample questions interspersed throughout the course content to help assess learning and prepare for certification exams.
• Expert Instruction: The course is taught by the author of SysML Distilled, ensuring high-quality instruction from an experienced educator.
• This course is designed to fit into busy schedules, allowing participants to learn at their own pace over a period of 12 months.

Learn How To

• Prepare participants for OCSMP certification exams, focusing on Model User (Level 1) and Model Builder: Fundamental (Level 2)
