"Unified Modelling Language (UML) in Healthcare" Courses

HL7 Australia intends to hold further UML Courses in2005 - watch the HL7 Australia e-mail list and this page for details!

Note: The 2003 UML Courses were a great success with over 50 participants successfully completing the 2 days. Please find the links for the Workshop materials below.

HL7 Australia, in conjunction with HL7 New Zealand, is happy to announce three "UML in Healthcare" Courses:

        New South Wales: September 29&30, 2003 - Oracle offices, 4 Julius Ave, North Ryde
        Victoria: October 2&3, 2003 - Oracle offices, St Kilda Road, Melbourne
        New Zealand: October 7&8, 2003 - Wellington, NZ

The Courses will be taught by Charlie Mead, M.D., M.Sc., - Oracle, Oakland, USA - Member HL7.org Board.  The sponsorship of Oracle Australia is gratefully acknowledged.

The focus of Workshop will be on 'analysis' rather than 'design/implementation', but depending on the backgrounds of the participants, spend some time on code/DDL generation from diagrams, executable models, etc... as well as the HL7 Development Framework (HDF), mapping to the HL7 Reference Information Model (RIM) and beyond, etc.

The basic format of the Workshop is lecture -> hands-on -> lecture -> hands-on -> etc.  with the amount of hands-on time increasing over the two days as the amount of lecture time decreases. The hands-on time is done in groups of 4 or 5 working on an assigned topic (common topic for entire class on day 1, individual group topics on day 2).

Each group will give 15-20 minute presentation of their diagrams at the end of the 2 days.  Successful participants will be given a certificate at the end of the Workshop.

Each workshop is limited to 25 participants.
