Labs and pace were great
Morgan - NSWCDD Dam Neck
Course - Applying SysML with MagicDraw/Cameo
Learning new functionality and completing practical exercises on the demo tool
Dede - Leidos Innovations UK Ltd
Course - Applying SysML with MagicDraw/Cameo
Filip, was a knowable and personable guy. I enjoyed this course and it would be very benefitable for me to practice in my own time after
Robert - Leidos Innovations UK Ltd
Course - Applying SysML with MagicDraw/Cameo
The labs and exercises helped give context to the presentation slides and showed some of the useful features of Cameo
Nick - Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
Course - Applying SysML with MagicDraw/Cameo
Hands on exercises. I think some of us got a little brain weary at the end and a little lost w/the tool.
Armen
Course - Applying SysML with MagicDraw/Cameo
Hands on work, openness to questions and thoughtful responses.
Brian Wiktorek
Course - Applying SysML with MagicDraw/Cameo
He was fun and his mix of lecture/demo/do on your own was really good.
