Our expert analysts are trainers who help our customers learn the ins and outs of moldflow simulation and how to apply the best techniques for the most optimal outcome. And when we say training, we don’t mean just giving you a book to learn on your own, we’re there with you to teach the concepts (basic, intermediate, and advanced), answer questions, and build your knowledge base so you become an expert too. Whether it’s teaching you how to use the Autodesk® Moldflow® simulation software packages or general moldflow topics (see below), CAE training experts are here for you.

If you are unable to attend the course dates shown, please provide potential alternative dates with your registration.

 

Please note that the courses listed do not include customized training, which can also be arranged.
