MSC Software Launches Flexible, Affordable Online Learning Platform for CAE Users

Global Simulation Software Provider Supports the Training and Development of CAE Users with the New MSC Software Learning Center

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — February 11, 2014MSC Software Corporation, a global leader in helping product manufacturers to advance their engineering methods with simulation software and services, today announced a new online learning platform that provides individualized training for MSC users to get the most possible value from their software.

The MSC Learning Center offers a full range of training services including self-paced learning resources in an online modular format. The Learning Center is available by subscription and accessible from desktops, laptops and tablets. Its broad range of content accommodates all learning styles and enables each user to work at their own pace.

“There are as many learning styles as there are people, and we’ve built the MSC Learning Center to support all of them,” said Jeff Graff, Vice President of Technical Support and e-Learning for MSC Software, “Some people learn through hands-on practice and observing cause and effect. Some need to learn individually while others need a community setting of like-minded people brainstorming and trading ideas. The MSC Learning Center has options to help all of those people use our simulation technology to its full potential to create superior products.”

The MSC Learning Center is designed to provide easy, flexible and affordable access to individuals and enterprises. Classes are broken into modules that build on knowledge learned from previous modules. The modular structure enables users to focus on and build experience in one topic at a time and to take targeted refreshers on specific topics.

Each module includes a variety of learning content to appeal to different learners. There are lecture slides, software demonstrations and quizzes. Embedded workshops range from simple examples to real-world problems delivered with model files. Voiceovers from instructors complement lecture material and demonstrations. Dynamic tables of contents enable users to browse a module’s contents and jump to specific points in the course. Upon completing a course, the user can take a test to certify their completion.

Learners can use the MSC Learning Center to work toward certification on MSC solutions. There are currently subscriptions available for Adams Learning Material and MSC Nastran Learning Material.
