InConcept
Object-Role Modeling Seminar
Introduction
InConcept is proud to announce the following
upcoming ORM seminars in Minneapolis, MN.
Testimonials
"A great introduction to the concepts and
use of Object-Role Modeling taught by instructors with a wealth of
knowledge in ORM." -- John Miller, Perpetual Data Systems
"As a rank amateur, I found the information
to be extremely valuable. The topic was covered in a clear, concise
manner.... As for [the instructors, they] are exceptionally
knowledgeable, and able to pass on that knowledge." -- Joe
Draheim, Customer FX
"The training was valuable in applying the
first column of the Zachman Framework (data) to our software
development process at Sandia. This helped me link the business rule
approach and the fact model approach together in a workable fashion."
-- Patrick Milligan, Sandia National Laboratories
"The course provided me with an excellent
overview and initial understanding of ORM. [The InConcept Instructor
was] a very knowledgeable instructor." -- James Funk

Seminar Outline
This three-day seminar will focus on the use
of Object-Role Modeling to correctly model your business data
requirements. Each day also contains "hands on" labs where students
practice the technique while ORM certified instructors give
one-on-one assistance.
Students will learn:
- Why you should model at the conceptual
level and the differences between the conceptual, logical, and
physical levels.
- How to gather data requirements in an
accurate, consistent, rigorous manner more expressive than
Entity-Relationship modeling and OO (UML) techniques
- How to transform this additional
knowledge into ER diagrams and UML class models
- How to integrate what you have learned
into your current analysis and design processes (and the tools you
already use!)
- How to use the Conceptual Schema Design
Procedure (CSDP)
- Various tool and method tips and tricks
- How to use ORM as an effective bridge
between your analysis and design efforts
- How to create correct, normalized
schemas without manual normalization
- How to correctly implement surrogate
keys without losing any domain knowledge
- How to ensure domain (not just data
type) integrity
- How to gather attribute level
constraints
- How to completely verify that your
models are correct
- Effective and correct data schema
transformations
- How to make your user community
understand, and more importantly, verify your modeling effort
- How to model in a less error-prone
manner
- Why you shouldn't worry if an element is
an entity or an attribute
- How to quickly use semantic methods to
verify existing ER models
- Advanced modeling constructs and
techniques
In addition, each student will receive:
- A copy of (the revised 1999 second edition
of) Conceptual Schema & Relational Database Design by Dr.
Terry Halpin
- Various course materials
- A Visio Enterprise Test Drive CD (which
also contains VisioModeler and Active Query as well as various
white papers)
