DO-254 Applied Practitioner

Apply DO-254 knowledge through practical engineering exercises.

About the Course

DO-254 Applied Practitioner helps participants develop their ability to use DO-254 process knowledge in practical project situations.

Hands-on labs are conducted in the AeroDAS Lab App, an interactive learning environment where participants can follow the complete hardware development lifecycle and examine the evidence supporting each stage. Through a guided example project, participants explore the relationships between requirements, design, verification, and supporting assurance activities, observing how lifecycle data, traceability, and documented evidence connect engineering decisions throughout the process.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:

  • Identify weaknesses and omissions in example project data.
  • Explain and justify how a requirement can be verified.
  • Evaluate traceability and consistency across lifecycle data.
  • Translate review findings into specific improvement actions.

Practical Topics

  • Identifying lifecycle activities for an example project.
  • Reviewing planning content for scope and responsibilities.
  • Assessing requirements for clarity, consistency, and verifiability.
  • Handling derived requirements.
  • Establishing traceability between requirements, design, and verification.
  • Selecting verification methods and defining test scenarios.
  • Evaluating example verification results and findings.
  • Assessing the impact of changes on related activities and data.
  • Identifying inconsistencies and gaps in supporting evidence.
  • Use of AMC 20-189 by defining problem reports on an example project.

Who Should Attend?

Engineers who prepare requirements, perform design or verification activities, review lifecycle data, or apply DO-254 processes in day-to-day project work.

Recommended Background

D254-CP or equivalent knowledge of the DO-254 lifecycle is recommended. The course builds on this knowledge through practical exercises.
