Mini Training Sessions

Collaborative Modeling Best Practices

Learn best practices for collaborative team modeling, applicable to on-site, remote, and distributed teams, derived from Stephen's extensive experience working with customers. You will learn how to utilize a range of tools and techniques, including discussions, chats, journals, reviews, calendars, perspectives, model libraries, baselines, security, pause-edit and resume, audit, and locking strategies. Ensure that all team members can work independently while contributing confidently to team and project initiatives, supporting the evolution of enterprise and solution models.

Create Organisation-Specific Pattern Libraries

Learn how to create libraries of organization-specific patterns to accelerate project startup by providing teams with pre-built, approved templates that embody best practices and architectural standards, eliminating the need to design common solutions from scratch. These patterns also ensure consistency across projects and teams, making models easier to understand and maintain while reducing errors that occur when everyone interprets standards differently.

Tips and Tricks for Intermediate and Advanced Modelers

Learn tips and tricks for Enterprise Architect gleaned from Stephen's 25 years of experience with the tool and significantly boost your productivity by revealing keyboard shortcuts, hidden features, and efficient workflows that reduce repetitive tasks and navigation time. These practical techniques will help you leverage the tool's full potential, transforming you from a basic modeler into a power user who can accomplish in minutes what might otherwise take hours, while also discovering capabilities you didn't know existed.

Attendees will also have access to additional complimentary training sessions with Sparx Services', Stephen Maguire.
