Model-Based Systems Engineering can empower teams to work smarter. Unfortunately, teams can sometimes get lost in the complexity of the tools, and lose sight of the objective—capturing and communicating key system information to stakeholders. Diagrams can multiply, but clarity and insight doesn’t come automatically. Applied MBSE (AMBSE) helps you harness the capability of MBSE tools by helping you hone practical skills for building and using system
models to deliver real project value.
This course treats MBSE as an integrated engineering communication discipline. Rather than merely teaching how to drive a specific tool, AMBSE focuses on how to abstract real-world systems into purposeful models that improve clarity, consistency, traceability, and engineering judgment—principles that apply across tools and projects. While the approach is tool-agnostic, participants gain extensive hands-on experience using either Innoslate or Cameo, with other
tools accommodated by arrangement. Emphasis is on learning how MBSE can be used throughout the lifecycle: capturing and validating design requirements, communicating solution architectures, connecting interfaces and tracing verification activities.
You will learn by doing. Through a progressively more complex series of exercises, you will demonstrate MBSE’s core advantages—capturing, connecting, controlling, communicating, collaborating, and cycling. Starting by creating the model for a simple system by following a detailed guided set of procedures, you’ll build on that knowledge and skill to develop and execute models for more complex systems, culminating in the creation of your own model from scratch.
Have an MBSE tool but not sure where to start? Are you expected to build or maintain models that actually support engineering work? AMBSE is designed for systems engineers and technical team members who need hands-on experience using models as active engineering assets.

✦ Define key systems engineering terms
