"Our tailored course provided a well rounded introduction and also covered some intermediate level topics that we needed to know. Clive gave us some best practice ideas and tips to take away. Fast paced but the instructor never lost any of the delegates"

UML and BPMN are the foremost notational language for specifying, visualizing, analysing and designing complex applications and systems
Especially well suited to Object Oriented programming and Embedded Systems development, UML builds on previous notational methods such as Booch, OMT, and OOSE.
Each technique is taught to the level required for competence on a real project. A short, smooth, iterative and incremental software process is described which improves speed of delivery, estimation and traceability. Sections on component based modelling and design patterns are included.
The course provides the essential elements of object-oriented requirements analysis using the new UML.
This course is highly practical and based on experience developed in our own projects. Delegates are encouraged to discuss problems and to identify how the skills taught could benefit their organisation.
The course is built up of a number of manageable components. Each deals with a specific stage in the UML model building process and is introduced by a short period of instruction followed by a practical structured exercise designed to assist delegates understand concepts and learn techniques. In this way delegates will build up complete models of example systems as the course progresses. The course presents a practical view of the entire process, teaching delegates to build effective models of typical business applications.
Delegates are provided with comprehensive course notes which are used during the course to support assignment work. These are a valuable reference source to assist delegates develop effective UML models.
Course content has been developed for real-world, commercial scenarios by our expert instructors. See below for detailed syllabus, or if you have a technical question, please email [email protected]
At the end of this course delegates will be able to:
1. Translate requirements into object-oriented models of system structure and behaviour that provide a traceable route through to implementation
2. Understand the stages in the development cycle and appreciate why and when to apply UML
3. Apply UML/BPMN concepts and notation for representing objects, classes and interfaces; be able to specify their content and know how to represent the different relationships of association, aggregation inheritance and realisation
4. Use appropriate UML diagrams and notation to model the work of requirements capture, analysis and design
5. Translate analysis models, based on entity relationship diagrams into design models based around class diagrams
6. Understand the concepts of a use-case driven approach to object-oriented requirements modelling and the application of use-cases as a tool for incremental systems delivery
7. Identify and describe use cases and see through role playing following the techniques of CRC (class, relationship, collaboration) to develop the "real" design
8. Apply the concepts and notation for sequence diagrams during design and understand how they relate to class diagrams and use-cases
9. Understand where dynamic modelling with state charts is appropriate
