The Systems Modelling Techniques using UML training course is designed to be both practical and participative. Theoretical concepts are introduced and are then reinforced through practical exercises where participants can apply the skills and techniques of analysis in a realistic project simulation.

Systems Modelling Techniques using UML Course Objectives

At the end of this Systems Modelling Techniques using UML training participants will be able to:

• Define the need for modelling and modelling techniques
• Explain why it is important to model system requirements from different perspectives
• Develop use case diagrams with supporting use case descriptions
• Develop analysis class models with supporting documentation
• Develop a sequence diagram
• Develop an activity diagram to model the user interface
• Evaluate selected models against business objectives and system requirements
• Describe how the products of analysis feed into the design and development of a system
