Why Live Virtual Training?

Experience

  • Closest online experience to classroom and on-site training
  • Led by an instructor with recognised OpenFOAM expertise
  • Hands-on labs by remote desktop to virtual machine

Benefits

  • Zero cost of travel and accommodation
  • Saves travel time: another cost of being off-site
  • Can be attended from quiet environment, e.g. home office

Remote machines were very effective

The setup with video conferencing and remote machines was very effective due to the high level of organization of the CFD Direct team.

Greatly enhanced my understanding

The programming course greatly enhanced my understanding of OpenFOAM. The course materials were very carefully developed… I am now in a position to develop my own tailored OpenFOAM applications.
