COURSE OVERVIEW
RTCA DO-178C <Software Considerations in Airborne Systems and Equipment Certification> is the worldwide accepted standard for civil aviation software development and certification. Compliance with the objectives of DO-178C is the primary means for meeting airworthiness requirements and obtaining approval of airborne software in TC/STC/TSO, etc..
This three-day DO-178C Training course is tuned for the software engineer facing compliance with DO-178 for the first time or simply wanting to refresh their understanding of today’s airborne software compliance processes – now including a comparison of the changes from DO-178B to DO-178C. DO-178C training will introduce tools that focus on the additional activities required due to the changes made in going from DO-178B to DO-178C.
The DO-178C Training course will provide a thorough understanding of the requirements and applicability of DO-178C; the fundamental techniques of software development considerations in airborne systems and equipment certification; and an introduction and overview of Software Tool Qualification Considerations, Formal Methods Supplement To DO-178C, Model-Based Development and Verification Supplement To DO-178C, Object Oriented Technology, and Related Techniques Supplement To DO-178C.
