Requirements
Participants are expected to possess a foundational grasp of systems engineering principles, specifically regarding requirements, system architecture, and behavioral modeling. While experience with SysML v1.x or UML is advantageous, it is not a prerequisite. No existing knowledge of SysML v2 or programming background is necessary; however, participants should feel confident using text-based editing tools.
Target Audience
This course is designed for systems engineers, MBSE practitioners, system and software architects, product engineers, technical business analysts, and current SysML v1.x users seeking to acquire proficient, practical skills in SysML v2 modeling.
