NEW! INCOSE Certified System Engineering Professional (CSEP) Boot Camp

Is it right for me?

Our INCOSE Certified System Engineering Professional (CSEP) Boot Camp is suitable for System Engineers working towards INCOSE Certified Systems Engineering Professional (CSEP) accreditation who wish to obtain additional guidance on the certification process, completing their application and the accreditation examination.

Note that CSEP accreditation itself requires INCOSE validation of SE credentials before CSEP can be awarded. For more details visit www.incose.org/educationcareers/certification

What will I get out of it?

By the end of the course you will be able to:

  • Support a primarily self-learning based approach to achieving CSEP
  • Understand the process for INCOSE Certification application
  • Understand the structure and content of the INCOSE SE Handbook and how it is used in the certification examination
  • Provide guidance and typical questions in CSEP exam format in order to provide support preparation for the formal examination

The CSEP examination is based upon content of the INCOSE Systems Engineering Handbook (now at Version V3.2).

**NOTE This course is not intended to provide a detailed understanding of the basics of the lifecycle. It is assumed that CSEP exam candidates will already be familiar with systems engineering basics. TT&C also offer a traditional hands-on systems engineering course which presents systems engineering ideas and techniques using the INCOSE Handbook V3.2 as its basis as well as summarising the CSEP certification process
