How you'll learn
100% online training on the SEIUM campus, with downloadable material, recorded classes and assigned technical tutor. No fixed timetable: students progress at their own pace within the intake, which allows them to combine it with work.
Each module combines theory, guided reading of the original standard and applied exercises. The working software is Siemens Teamcenter, PTC Windchill, Dassault 3DEXPERIENCE, Microsoft Purview, in free, academic or evaluation versions. Case studies are based on real security audit procedures in PLM environments, supply chain risk analyses and information leak incident drills. Assessment is continuous per module plus the final integrating project.
Build it end to end
Your final project follows the real engineering workflow, step by step, reviewed by your tutor.
Understand design information as a critical asset.
Apply the regulatory and contractual framework for protecting defence information.
Implement access control and classification in CAD and PLM environments.
Manage collaboration with the supply chain securely.
Integrate ITAR, NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC requirements into the organisation.
