TRAINING   COURSES

PROTOS is an established Engineering Services  company committed to the Development and Application of  novel Technologies for the Solution of problems and the Optimisation of existing procedures in the area of Structural Mechanics across the Space, Aeronautics, Automotive, Defence, Transport, Power and other Industries.

 

PROTOS is offering various training courses to its clients. These courses range from elementary theoretical background familiarisation to "On the Job Training".

 

 Effectively the client can be trained on the use of certain CAE  tools  as well as to acquire the expertise to perform various tasks from Simulation and Analysis to Test and Qualification campaign campaigns for real product Development and Manufacturing.

 

Our Training portfolio include standard and customised courses that help the client grasp the fundamental mathematical and physical concepts that they would need to cope with the "hands on" and "on the job" training requirements.

 

 

   PROTOS are delighted to announce their new "One-to-One" MODAL TEST Training Course.

 

The Course is :

 

i) Tailored for the needs of a single client

ii) It is held at the installations of the client

iii) Based on the performance of real Modal Tests on realistic structures of the client and including the amount of Theoretical material that the client wishes
