With the growing complexity of today’s technological systems, it is more and more necessary to architect systems before design work begins. As a result, a systems perspective and architecting principles are required to successfully design, operate, and sustain many systems.

Program Experience
The 40-hour Systems Architecture Certificate Program will provide your team with an understanding of the fundamental organization of a system as embodied in its components, their relationships to each other, the environment, and the principles guiding its design and evolution.
This program introduces systems architecting concepts through lectures, case studies, and individual and team exercises. Teams will use modeling frameworks and approaches such as SysML, UAF, TOGAF/DODAF, and MOSA to develop architectural views and models.
Benefits
Your team will learn to:
Recognize the fundamentals of systems architecting and the role of the systems architect
Apply heuristics, processes, methods, languages, and systems architecture tools
Explore various architectures used within the government and industry
Apply the Department of Defense Architecture Framework (DODAF) to documenting system architectures
Use Systems Modeling Language (SysML) to construct visual models of the system design
Recognize architectural factors to consider and evaluate architectural effectiveness
Address architectural considerations, including complexity, affordability, technologies, software, design factors, Cost Off The Shelf (COTS), and Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA)
Topics
