FAQ – Frequently asked questions
Yes, exactly. All courses run parallel to each other. You can either take a single course or one of our combination courses.
You should plan around 16 hours for the Modelica training course. All other courses require around 8 hours each. The time allocation within the training week is flexible and entirely up to you.
Our experienced trainers are happy to assist you. In personal video meetings, they answer individual questions and help with specific tasks.
During the training week, you can flexibly arrange appointments between 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. (CEST) at any time via a booking link.
We provide you with all the necessary software and licences for the training period. Depending on the course, these include Dymola or Modelon Impact as development environments, as well as our TIL and PSL model libraries.
We place great value on personal support. In order to be able to guarantee individual support in a timely manner and because only a limited number of software licences are available, the number of participants is limited.
Yes, of course. Upon successful completion of a course, you will receive an official certificate. The prerequisite is that you complete all video tutorials and the corresponding programming exercises.
Our Modelica basic course can be taken without any specific prior knowledge. A technical degree and general programming experience are helpful, but not essential. The same applies to the TIL and PSL training courses – however, we recommend that you take the Modelica course first. For the TIL Advanced course, you should already have in-depth experience with Modelica and TIL.
