Enterprise Architect

Prerequisites:

Delegates should have a good working knowledge of Enterprise Architect.

Enterprise Architect

For webinar delivery delegates require a PC or laptop running Enterprise Architect with an Internet connection (a headset can be helpful). If you wish to test your environment join a test WebEx meeting: www.webex.com/test-meeting.html

A trial version of Enterprise Architect is fine for training and can be downloaded from Sparx Systems website: www.sparxsystems.com/products/ea/trial.html. It is also helpful to have a mouse as this makes creating diagrams much easier.

Course Style:

40% theory, 60% practical
This workshop comprises a set of targeted hands-on exercises to allow delegates to become confident creating templates and generating documentation from Enterprise Architect.

Delegate Handouts:

Each delegate receives a booklet containing all the workshop slides and comprehensive theory notes which form excellent reference material. Booklets also contain exercises and suggested solutions. Following successful completion of the workshop each delegate receives a certificate.
