COMPREHENSIVE TRAINING SOLUTIONS FOR YOUR CRITICAL AEROSPACE SYSTEMS CERTIFICATION NEEDS
DO-178C and DO-254 are now required for nearly all aerospace-related systems. Commercial and military aircraft,
UAV’s, and even satellites require compliance or certification to DO-178C/254. However, both newcomers and experts
agree: DO-178C/254 are complex standards with either great benefits or great costs, depending on your understanding.
That’s where ConsuNova comes in.
In our two day training session attendees will learn the real intent of DO-178C and DO-254 and the best practices that
make them successful. We start with a brief history of the standards to show the DO-178C/254 evolution path leading to
today’s interpretation. Attendees learn why DO-254 is 80% similar to DO-178C and why the key differences must be
understood. With most systems containing both hardware and software, this class combines DO-178C (software) and
DO-254 (hardware) to demonstrate the exact application of both within the components of their system.
