"This course was really good and practical, and gives super clues on some additional functions in the software which allows easier work with the tool."
Grzegorz Duszejko, Omicron Electronics

“Very useful course; strongly customer oriented. Good teacher and good slides.”
Hao Li, Incoatec

"The training was great and satisfying my needs. I especially like the lab and the support of the instructor in doing this lab."
Eslam Sawaby, Valeo

Very good training. I already knew a lot about this tool but could learn a lot of tricks anyway!”
Marc Schiricke, Ferchau Engineering

"Very good course material, excellent instructor, good environment. Course material is very structured, right amount of labs to practice the commands."
Thomas Zieger, Magneti Marelli

"The course was well prepared and I think that giving us time to do the labs after explanations is for us a really good way to directly practice our learning. (…) the contents were clear and easy to understand. The teacher was nice and took time for us."
Ruben Guerreiro, Meggitt Sensing Systems

"A very good experience, a lot of useful knowledge to take home."
Sebastian Eckert, Britze Elektronik

"I already knew the basics but I learned a lot of stuff to speed my work up and make it easier.”
