Training and Seminars
Softing's seminar program – competence through further training
You want to know all about diagnostic programming, flash programming and ECU communication fast without having to spend lots of time studying relatively "dry" vehicle protocols? Softing can make it happen.
We have put our knowledge and long years of experience into a compact training program. This program is divided into user workshops and technology seminars in both English and German.
User workshops
The user workshops consist of a theoretical and a practical part. You consolidate what you learn immediately by using it straight away. During the exercises, you are supported by a competent trainer who answers open questions immediately.
Technology seminars
Our technology seminars provide an introduction to diagnostic concepts, vehicle protocols and bus systems. Thanks to our active involvement in a large number of standardization organizations (e.g. ASAM, FlexRay etc.), we can provide you with information on new developments in the vehicle electronics sector at an early stage.
- Small groups (max. 10 participants)
- Large proportion of practical exercises
- Highly-experienced trainers
- Repeatedly described by participants as excellent and regularly recommended to others
