What do the participants say about the course?

Cursul este perfect structurat pentru a cunoaște software-ul într-un mod cuprinzător. Exerciții și explicații foarte practice. În calitate de detaliere a oțelului cu mai mult de 10 ani de experiență, cunoașterea și învățarea acestui software este esențială pentru a fi la curent și pentru a rămâne competent. Este prezentul și viitorul conexiunilor din oțel.

Acest curs este foarte bine organizat, unde puteți găsi o mulțime de materiale și explicații despre cum să utilizați software-ul. Este vorba despre 400 de pagini de prelegeri și o mulțime de videoclipuri cu diferite subiecte, în care vă dezvoltați cunoștințele despre IDEA StatiCa și cum să înțelegeți intrările și ieșirile software-ului. Există o mare diferență între a vedea un tutorial simplu pe YouTube și a face acest antrenament. M-am îmbunătățit mult cu acest antrenament și acum pot modela orice conexiune și în moduri diferite. Doar incearca! Sistemul de notare nu este atât de ușor, trebui să studiezi și să gândești.

This course gave me valuable and detailed information on using the software, with just the right amount of theoretical background, as well as useful practical tips and tricks. It is so much more than reading online help files or watching videos. Compared to other calculation software, relatively more engineering judgment is required to correctly define the model and interpret the results, and this course provides a lot of help understanding how seemingly minor changes in input data can lead to significantly different results and possible errors. I am definitely more confident and efficient in using IDEA StatiCa after having finished the course.
