CADFEM training courses are designed to enable every participant to achieve the learning objective. To do so, we put together the appropriate number of 90-minute learning units. If multiple employees in your company already have relevant prior knowledge at a comparable level or you wish to combine specific contents, a customized course is the right choice for you.
CADFEM offers selected seminars as a learning on demand option with identical content; other topics can only be booked as online courses. In all courses, you decide for yourself when, where and at what intervals you continue your Ansys education. The new eLearning option was developed by CADFEM in collaboration with the ZEIT Akademie. You benefit from the proven seminar expertise of the CADFEM team and our instructors in the field of Ansys. All further education formats are coordinated to ensure that you can combine seminars and eLearning courses in ideal fashion.
Simulation is more than software. In an academic professional development program with CADFEM's university partners, you can get a glimpse behind the program interface. You learn the calculation algorithms, use analytical methods to simplify models and validate results, and understand the influence of all kinds of software parameters. The expertise you acquire will enable you to produce fast and reliable findings that answer key product improvement questions. To ensure your specialist or managerial career develops in the direction you want it to, we recommend a combination of both types of further education.
Usually the training courses start at 9:00 am and end at 5:00 pm of the respective local time. The actual course times will be stated in the booking confirmation.
