DO-178C
Core/Supplements Training

COURSE DEFINITION AND PURPOSE

DO-178C Training

DO-178C remains the definitive global benchmark for the development, verification, and certification of airborne software. BRNAvionics delivers this training as a rigorous engineering discipline, meticulously aligned with FAA and EASA audit expectations, offering both comprehensive supplement integration and core-standard focus tracks.

Training Objectives
Master Software Certification Fundementals

Gain a profound understanding of the fundamental of the development assurance principles required for flight-critical software.

Understand tool qualification (DO-330)

Understand the necessity of tool qualification, the applicable criterias and activities for each tool qualification level.

Modular Supplement Integration

Specialized modules are available for the complete DO-178C supplement suite, including DO-331 (Model-Based)DO-332 (Object-Oriented)DO-333 (Formal Methods).

Note: Standard DO-178C training is also available as a standalone core module without supplements.

Certification-Centric Lifecycle Structuring

Learn to architect the software lifecycle with a focus on clear transition criteria and rigorous data item production.

Inter-Process Integration

Master the critical technical dependencies between software, System (ARP4754)Safety (ARP4761) and Hardware (DO-254).

Optimized Verification & Structural Coverage

Determine the precise depth of verification (MC/DC, Statement, etc.) required for each Design Assurance Level (DAL A-D).

Proactive Compliance Mastery

Develop a preventive engineering mindset to identify and mitigate compliance gaps throughout the software life cycle.

Our training programs are delivered exclusively as in-company sessions.

Position in the Certification Ecosystem

DO-178C is not a standalone process; it has close connection with the other development processes.
