Training for Solution Architects and Developers

Visual Modelling with UML and other modelling notations is a mature approach well past the “hype of inflated expectations” it was experiencing in early 2000s. It is firmly placed in the “plateau of productivity”, and the productivity we shall deliver. Business Abstraction offers the range of training courses that deliver fundamental understanding, practical skills and immediate visible impact on productivity, clarity and manageability of software-intensive projects.

Unfortunately many teams, while thinking about visual modelling, presume decade-old hype-oriented techniques and tools that fail to deliver immediate tangible results. Our very practical courses, based on real-life IT experience and built around exercises change projects for the better from the next day after training.

We also offer Advanced Training for Architects, Business Analysts and Designers who already have significant Sparx Enterprise Architect and Modelling skills.
