Course overview
EC-CERT-SYS follows on from the fundamentals of certification and safety to explain the development assurance processes expected for aircraft and systems development, and how they relate to the certification activities.
On completion, attendees understand the development assurance objectives for systems development and how FDALs and IDALs are decomposed during the development of systems, hardware, and software. The course also explains the fundamental activities during system development and verification and the expectations for showing compliance to ARP-4754B.
