Mrunmayi Joshi
(?)
Sep 28, 2022
Here is an interview with
Mark Williamson of SyntheSys Technologies Ltd.
which talks about his experience and perspective as a trainer on the SEP Certification.
Happy SEPtember!
This interview was done in 2022.
Q1.
What is your current role/position?
» I am the Managing Director of SyntheSys Technologies Ltd.
Q2.
What is one of your proudest professional achievements?
» My time serving in the Royal Air Force working on airborne radar and other systems brought about many incredibly proud professional experiences. The work I have done since leaving the forces has also been a great source of pride to me; I feel privileged to work with innovative manufacturing and engineering organizations and feel proud of how the team here at SyntheSys has developed a robust and specialist systems engineering offering.
Q3.
What skills do you think a systems engineer best learns through training?
» The INCOSE framework as outlined in the INCOSE systems engineering handbook is a robust basis for a successful learning experience and it is with that in mind that I develop my training courses. But it is not just the theory of systems engineering which is important when considering the application of new skills, and I am a great believer in teaching around human factors, knowledge management and other organizational project-enabled processes.
Q4.
What guidance/training do you provide students regarding systems engineering and SEP certification?
» I offer the following training solutions to individuals looking to start or extend their systems engineering careers: (1) An Introduction to Systems Engineering; (2) INCOSE Systems Engineering Exam Preparation Training; (3) Requirements Writing Training.
Q5.
What motivated you to provide these trainings?
» I consider myself an active member of the INCOSE and broader systems engineering communities and saw a growing appetite and interest in systems engineering and felt I could add value by sharing my knowledge and assist those looking to develop a career.
Q6.
What methods do you use to provide these trainings effectively?
» My training style is varied and interactive. I use a mix of knowledge sharing, workshops, discussions and exercises, to ensure my students have a thorough understanding of the principles and practices of systems engineering.
Q7.
How do you continue to learn about Systems engineering? What developmental activities do you do?
» Participation in industry events is a valued source of knowledge and insight and gives me access to the latest thinking in systems engineering. I participate in formal training programs provided by industry leaders such as IBM. My privileged position as a trainer also gives me access to informal peer-to-peer learning and I participate in online and in-person peer-to-peer forums, working groups and workshops which also keep my knowledge fresh.
Q8.
