Public and Teleseminar Class Schedule
Prerequisites: none
Duration: 5 days at a site, 10 weeks teleseminar series
Public class price: $2500.00 includes instructor, meeting space, all course materials, and lunch each day.
Public class size: 10 - 20 delegates
Teleseminar class price: $1750.00 includes 2 meetings a week with the instructor (one instructional, one Q&A) and all course materials. Homework is assigned, and delegates interact through a Facebook Fan page. Meetings are recorded and available for delegates to download after the meeting, making it possible for people to attend who have a schedule conflict at the meeting times.
Teleseminar minimum class size: 5 delegates
Description: This is a foundational course in object oriented (OO) technology. It covers initial OO analysis of requirements, the basics of enterprise and component architectures, mapping the requirements into the project architecture,
design patterns, common system level design issues, and detailed design of components and classes. Unified Modeling Language (UML) is used throughout, and the course covers the most commonly used elements of UML.
The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is the industry standard notational language for documenting object oriented software. A case study of a real software system will be followed throughout the course.
Class exercises are in the form of text documents and UML models of a realistic software system. There are pseudo code examples in a Java type syntax, and some simple Java code examples.
Use of an OO development tool is encouraged, but not required.
Delegates may choose to download a free UML modeling tool to use during the course or may choose to create diagrams on whiteboard or paper.
This course is appropriate for anyone interested in learning the basics of object oriented development in UML, including web developers, software developers, programmers, designers, architects, and technical managers.
It is designed for people who need to use UML to document the analysis and design of software systems.
Benefits of this Course:
- Know an effective process for analyzing and designing component based software
- Know how the various UML diagrams work together to document your system
- Know what parts of the notation are most useful to your projects and which can safely be ignored
- Know how the project architecture relates to the enterprise architecture
- Know the most used design patterns and how to apply them to your project
- Know how to transform UML diagrams to code
- Know when you can safely use the least expensive UML modeling tools, and when you should invest in full Software Development Environments

Instructors: Geri Schneider Winters. Ms. Winters was first introduced to Object Oriented techniques in 1982. She has worked using OO Techniques in Booch, OMT, OOSE, and UML notations. Ms. Winters has taught OO, Architecture, and Design Patterns for many companies including Rational Software, IBM, Boeing, Safeway Inc., Intuit, Dental Dental of California, and University of California Santa Cruz Extension. She has been using UML since the 0.8 release in Austin, Texas in 1996.
