Course Overview

The MathWorks course *Applying Model-Based Design for ISO 26262* is an advanced five-day training program designed for engineers and development teams working on safety-critical automotive software. It prepares professionals for compliance with the ISO 26262 functional safety standard, particularly targeting roles such as Embedded Software Engineers, Systems Architects, and Safety Managers in the automotive industry. With over 90% of automotive OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers adopting Model-Based Design for safety-related systems, this course equips participants with industry-aligned methodologies to streamline development and certification. It covers the full lifecycle from requirements traceability to tool qualification, ensuring engineers can apply best practices in real-world safety-critical projects.

Participants gain hands-on experience using core MathWorks tools including Simulink, Stateflow, Embedded Coder, Simulink Test, Polyspace Bug Finder, and the IEC Certification Kit. Through structured labs conducted within the MATLAB and Simulink desktop environment, students build and simulate control algorithms, generate production-ready C code, and perform model-in-the-loop (MIL), software-in-the-loop (SIL), and processor-in-the-loop (PIL) testing. A key project involves implementing a control system from requirements to code, verifying compliance with MISRA C:2012 using Polyspace, and establishing traceability across all artifacts. The course emphasizes automation, enabling engineers to create reusable test suites and generate certification-ready reports directly from the model environment.

This training directly supports preparation for ISO 26262 certification, a globally recognized standard required for ASIL-rated systems up to ASIL D. Engineers with ISO 26262 and Model-Based Design expertise command salaries averaging $120,000–$150,000 in North America, reflecting high industry demand. Koenig Solutions delivers this official MathWorks curriculum with Guaranteed-to-Run scheduling and access to 1-on-1 instructor support, ensuring personalized learning. Upon completion, professionals are equipped to lead safety-critical development projects, reduce time-to-certification, and advance into senior roles in automotive functional safety engineering.
