Requirements
Participants should possess a foundational grasp of systems engineering principles, including requirements management, system architecture, and behavior. While familiarity with SysML v1.x or UML is advantageous, it is not a mandatory prerequisite. No previous experience with SysML v2 or programming is necessary; however, learners should be at ease using textual editors.
Target Audience
This course is tailored for systems engineers, MBSE practitioners, system and software architects, product engineers, technical business analysts, and existing SysML v1.x users seeking to develop robust, practical SysML v2 modeling competencies.
