MOD Architecture Framework (MODAF) Overview Training Course
MODAF is an internationally recognised enterprise architecture framework developed by the MOD to support Defence planning and change management activities. It does this by enabling the capture and presentation of information in a rigorous, coherent and comprehensive way that aids the understanding of complex issues.
The audience:
- Enterprise Architects, the principal customers for MODAF views, who need to both correctly interpret standard MODAF views provided to them and to specify and control the tasks required to create new views
- Architectural modellers who need guidance on the creation and interchange of MODAF views (including for example: architecting principles, view coherence rules and tool selection criteria)
- Tool developers and engineers who are implementing architectural data repositories for storing and manipulating MODAF Architecture data elements
- Trainers and educators who require reference material in order to appropriately train and support the previous types of MODAF users
- MODAF users who wish to contribute to the development of MODAF
- Managers who need to understand what views are required to answer their particular questions

-Knowledge of the teacher in the subject was really good. He was able to explain very nicely and was able to answer all the questions at that moment. -To be able to know what all the tool is capable of was really good. -The structure he showed, like using scenarios and traceability would be really helpful in my day-to-day work.

Embedded Linux Systems Architecture
35 HoursCourse Objectives
To provide an understanding of the essentials of embedded GNU/Linux, how the bits and pieces fit together. What components are needed to build an embedded GNU/Linux system, where to get them from and how to configure/build/install them? Where to get help from? What about those software licenses? Hands-on exercises provide you with the necessary practical experience to go ahead and develop your own embedded GNU/Linux systems after completing this training successfully.
Description
This five day training class uses hands-on exercises combined with instruction to illustrate the concepts of embedded GNU/Linux. It is designed to bring you quickly up to speed. The philosophy, concepts and commands necessary to make effective use of GNU/Linux are described through a combination of theory and on-the-job training.
Don't reinvent the wheel, but learn from an experienced trainer and take home a working knowledge of GNU/Linux and the ability to use it effectively in your own embedded development project.
Who should attend?
Managers, project managers, software-, hardware-, development-, systems engineers, testers, administrators, technicians and other parties interested in the technology, who want to understand as quickly as possible how Embedded GNU/Linux works. You must use GNU/Linux or you have to luxury to decide whether it makes sense to use it or not. Maybe you already tried to use Embedded GNU/Linux, but are not quite sure that you did everything the right way. You currently use a different operating system and wand to figure out whether GNU/Linux might better and/or cheaper.
Delivery Options
All the training material is English, but the presentation of it can be in English or in German, as you wish, worldwide.

ITIL®️ 4 Practice Manager
21 HoursDefined as “a set of organizational resources for performing work or accomplishing an objective,” there are 34 ITIL management practices in total, representing some of the most practical resources in the ITIL framework.
Whereas ITIL 4 Foundation introduces the management practices as concepts, the hands-on learning, and steps to apply the concepts happens in the practice modules. Validation of those skills happens with certification. Each individual practice course is intended for professionals who want to prove and validate their skills in specific practice areas, but certification as a Practice Manager requires a broader set of skills within a minimum of 5 practices that fall within three management practice domains:
- Monitor, Support, and Fulfill
- Plan, Implement, and Control
- Collaborate, Assure, and Improve
If you are an IT Professional interested in achieving the Practice Manager qualification, then you are seeking to establish good cross-practice collaboration and effective service value streams in your organization. To do this you must complete any 5 individual practices plus the ITIL Specialist: Create, Deliver and Support module, or you must complete one of the 3-day domain-based bundles plus the ITIL Specialist: Create, Deliver and Support module.

OCSMP Model Builder - Fundamentals prep
21 HoursThe OCSMP Model Builder – Fundamental examination tests knowledge and skills required to construct a basic SysML model of a system. The examination covers model concepts and organization, basic requirements capture and management, structure and behavior models, parametric models, allocation relationships, and use of stereotypes. Using the knowledge and skills covered at this level plus familiarity with a suitable SysML modeling tool, a holder of the OCSMP Model Builder – Fundamental Certification should be a productive contributor to modeling tasks performed by a Systems Engineering team employing a model-based systems engineering approach using SysML. The OCSMP Model Builder – Fundamental Certification is a prerequisite for the program’s two higher levels, and requires the OCSMP Model User Certification as its prerequisite.
This examination (as well as the others in the OCSMP series) tests your ability to apply the knowledge and skills listed here in the context of a model of a system. As you study, go beyond each individual diagram to understand how aspects that it models can influence or affect aspects of the system represented in other diagram types.
Systems Modeling with SysML and Enterprise Architect (EA)
21 HoursIn this instructor-led, live training in Brazil (online or onsite), participants will learn how to use SysML as implemented in Enterprise Architect (EA) to carry out system requirements analysis and modeling.
By the end of this training, participants will be able to:
- Understand and apply SysML to Systems Engineering projects, using a Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) approach.
- Identify system requirements based on use case models.
- Design and analyze system architecture.
SysML by example
21 HoursThis practical training will show you how to use efficiently the SysML modeling language. You will discover in particular the block diagrams for structural modeling of complex systems. You will deepen the sequence diagram, the state diagram and activity diagram for dynamic modeling. You will also learn to use specific SysML diagrams, such as the requirements diagram and the parametric diagram, as well as the important concept of allocation. We will also focus on the need to define a modeling approach, adapted to the context of the company and the type of system to be studied. We will finally see what is the state of the art of SysML modeling tools.
Audience:
Project managers, architects, system engineers, having to model complex systems including both software and hardware
Teaching Method:
- Theoretical presentation with examples
- Case Study on paper (demo of a SysML tool by the trainer)
UML in Enterprise Architect (workshops)
21 HoursThe course is designed for analysts, designers, developers, testers and project managers.
The workshop presents a problem analysis, design and documentation systems using UML and Enterprise Architect of Sparx Systems. During the training will be presented to the advanced capabilities of the program (such as MDA, profiles, XMI), and best practices that can greatly simplify and accelerate modeling.
Because the training focuses on the Enterprise Architect tool it is required for participants to already know how to model in UML. For those who would like to learn modeling we have dedicated training for UML.
