The world's most comprehensive hands-on Systems Modeling Language v1 (SysML®) course presented by one of the world's top SysML® modelling experts:

Testimonial

The course provided immense value to myself and my team, and successfully launched us into using the systems engineering software for a space mission. The presenter’s delivery was professional and friendly, and his knowledge and passion were remarkable.
2019, Dr James Gilbert, Project Engineer | Detector & Electronics Lead, Australian Astronomical Optics - Stromlo, ANU Research School of Astronomy & Astrophysics

Our main Webel IT Australia course is a hands-on Full SysML Workshop (5-Day) seminar course presented by Dr Darren Kelly, who is recognised as a leader in model-based and graphical software and systems engineering technologies and worked as an expert consultant on MagicDraw® UML and the MagicDraw SysML Plugin - also bundled as Magic Cyber-Systems Engineer ® (Cameo Systems Modeler®) and now known as the CATIA Magic family of SysML and MBSE tools.

A shorter Mini SysML Workshop (4-day) overview version of the course with mini-workshop sessions is also available, as well as SysML Language (3-Day or 4-Day) language-only course versions without tool exercises.

Webel SysML/MBSE course versions and topic outlines

Full SysML Workshop (5-day) (includes a Final Day Workshop)

Mini SysML Workshop (4-day) (includes mini-workshop tool exercises)

SysML Language (4-Day) (no tool exercises)

SysML Language (3-Day) (no tool exercises)

IMPORTANT: If some of your prospective course attendees have minimal or no prior experience with the SysML language or the MagicDraw/Cameo tools, we strongly recommend that you request at least our Mini SysML Workshop (4-Day) course version or, even better, the Full SysML Workshop (5-Day) course with Final Day Workshop. This is particularly advisable if you choose the Live Online web seminar format (rather than On-Site/Off-Site).
The SysML Language Intro (4-Day) and SysML Language Intro (3-Day) course versions do not include tool workshop exercises. They are well suited to the Live Online web seminar format. Coverage of SysML topics is greatly reduced for the SysML Language Intro (3-Day) course version.
We strongly recommend the On-Site (your training space) or Off-Site (external training facilities) course format for Workshop course versions with tool exercises over the Live Onsite web seminar format. But we have developed strategies for optimal presentation of training materials for the Live Onsite format, and for managing mini-workshop tool exercises during web seminars.
Please email or phone Webel IT Australia on +61 405 029 008 to arrange On-Site, Off-Site, or Live Online remote web training seminars and workshops.
NEWS: Webel now offers a tool-independent SysML™ Language Introduction course version for the SysML1.7 language specification, ideal for a 3-day or 4-day introductory seminar course. Please enquire here.
NEWS: Webel now offers content specific to the MagicDraw™ SysML and Cameo™ Systems Modeler tools as a separate comprehensive course supplement for inclusion in the Full SysML Workshop (5-Day) course. Please enquire here.
Attendees obtain full access to digital PDF client-only versions of the course slide sets and access to all Webel IT Australia training resources. Course attendees may print 1 copy of each slide set for internal use only..
Worried about falling asleep during long full-day Live Online web seminars? Split your course over 1/2 day sessions! Or schedule the course for non-consecutive calendar days. Just contact us to discuss your needs.

The Webel recipe for pragramatic SE with SysML omits many of the concerns addressed by fully-fledged systems engineering frameworks. Many of these can be partially addressed by using custom Stereotypes for extraction using query view tables.
Webel: SysML: SE: The custom stereotype keyword «design» covers elements involved with BOTH design and/or implementation aspects in the 'solution' zone. (In more comprehensive SE methodologies design and implementation are often treated separately.)
Webel: SysML: SE: Stereotype keyword convention: BY DEFINITION HERE «blackbox» and «whitebox» refer specifically to the 'problem' zone and NEVER the 'solution' zone (as opposed to more general uses of the terms 'black-box' and 'white-box').
[STUB] TRAIL: Webel's ultimate guide to simplified yet adequate pragmatic systems engineering with functional analysis in SysMLv1 for smaller scale MBSE projects in the MagicDraw/Cameo/CATIA Magic tools
Webel: SysML: SE: Naming convention: «whitebox»: A '$' prefix indicates a «logical» system, «logical» subsystem (aka conceptual subsystem) or «logical» handler Block (which is a more specific form of «logical» subsystems Block).
Webel: SysML: SE: Naming convention: '0' used for a Package/Model name indicates a zone dedicated to a formal systems engineering breakdown (functional analysis, blackbox, whitebox, logical vs design or implementation etc.)
Webel: SysML: Use concise Package and Model naming to provide "context aware" owner paths that reflect a systems engineering strategy. Extremely so-called "human friendly" verbose Package/Model names with spaces DO NOT make the model easier to understand!
Webel: Dr Darren says: "Many aspects of older Document-Intensive Systems Engineering methodologies and the reporting obligations they impose on their users were intended to address problems that simply DO NOT EXIST ANYMORE with modern MBSE with SysML!"
SysML: MagicDraw/Cameo: Use query view tables, matrices, and maps, use them a lot! They help communicate well with other stakeholders. Learn how to use the Generic Table diagram type, custom relations, Simple Navigation & Metachain Navigation (expert)!
