Requirements
Participants should possess a foundational understanding of systems engineering principles, particularly regarding requirements, system structure, and behavior. While familiarity with SysML v1.x or UML is beneficial, it is not a prerequisite. No prior knowledge of SysML v2 or programming experience is required; however, participants should feel comfortable working within a text editor environment.
Audience
The course is tailored for systems engineers, MBSE practitioners, system and software architects, product engineers, technical business analysts, and current SysML v1.x users seeking to acquire practical modeling skills in SysML v2.
