Training Seminars At Your Facility
We can bring our training to your location! These training seminars provide the same highly effective instruction on piping system modeling using AFT software as those held at our offices. Instead of traveling to us, we travel to you.
We provide the instructor, printed training materials and software, while you provide the facilities and a computer for each attendee to use during the training seminar.
Charges to conduct a training seminar are based on the time required and number of attendees. If you are doing a combination of topics, the total seminar duration can be reduced due to commonalities among the training seminars.
