Object Oriented Analysis & Design Course Overview

The Object Oriented Analysis & Design course focuses on the fundamental concepts of Object Orientation and UML as part of the Software Development Life Cycle. The course focuses on the core activities and artifacts of Object Orientation and UML when used with various methodologies including XP,Agile and Unified Process. UML 2 notation is used throughout the course.

This hands-on course shows delegates how to analyse and design models of software systems to enable them to develop quality software that meets the requirements of Stakeholders. Delegates will learn how to follow a system through the OO Analysis and Design phases and build models and artifacts to validate and elaborate the design.

UML Modelling Tools are available in the classroom to give delegates experience of using these tools to document analysis and design models.

A Case Study,exercises and examples are used throughout the course to give practical hands-on experience with the techniques covered.
