Changes are possible. The course content is updated regularly.

CATIA V5 is one of the world's leading CAD programs for mechanical engineering and enables parametric associative design. After completing the course, you will be able to create complex 3D designs with CATIA V5 efficiently and precisely. You will structure assemblies methodically (top-down/bottom-up), make targeted use of advanced surface modeling and prepare models for testing and production. This course prepares you optimally for the CATIA certifications and enables you to independently solve challenging design tasks in mechanical engineering and related areas.

You will also be familiar with the main SAP applications in production planning and round off your professional profile with SAP user certification.

The course is aimed at people with a degree in engineering and experience in the field of design, product designers, technicians, technical draughtsmen from the fields of mechanical or electrical engineering and specialists from other sectors with relevant professional experience.

Solid knowledge of CATIA V5 will significantly improve your chances on the job market. CATIA V5 is used in design and development departments worldwide, especially in the automotive and aerospace industries and their suppliers. With the original CATIA certification, you provide detailed insight into the qualifications you have acquired and prove your knowledge of one of the most sought-after design products in the industry.

In addition, you will acquire the globally standardized and recognized SAP user certificate for production planning (PP). It is considered one of the most important manufacturer certifications in the commercial sector, with which you can improve your career prospects on the job market across all industries.

Training partner of SAP® Germany

In cooperation with the SAP training partner alfatraining Bildungszentrum GmbH, we will qualify you for a job in industry and business.

You are directly connected to the SAP® Germany servers and learn on the original SAP® training system (IDES) in the latest version. This gives you the necessary practical experience during the course.

All SAP user courses also conclude with the original SAP certification. Our SAP instructors are qualified SAP consultants who will provide you with intensive support and prepare you optimally for the certification exam.

 

Didactic concept

Your lecturers are highly qualified both professionally and didactically and will teach you from the first to the last day (no self-study system).

You will learn in effective small groups. The courses usually consist of 6 to 25 participants. The general lessons are supplemented by numerous practical exercises in all course modules. The practice phase is an important part of the course, as it is during this time that you process what you have just learned and gain confidence and routine in its application. The final section of the course involves a project, a case study or a final exam.

 

Virtual classroom alfaview®

Lessons take place using modern alfaview® video technology - either from the comfort of your own home or at our premises at Bildungszentrum. The entire course can see each other face-to-face via alfaview®, communicate with each other in lip-sync voice quality and work on joint projects. Of course, you can also see and talk to your connected trainers live at any time and you will be taught by your lecturers in real time for the entire duration of the course. The lessons are not e-learning, but real live face-to-face teaching via video technology.

The courses at alfatraining are funded by Agentur für Arbeit and are certified in accordance with the AZAV approval regulation. When submitting a Bildungsgutscheinor Aktivierungs- und Vermittlungsgutschein, the entire course costs are usually covered by your funding body.
Funding is also possible via Europäischen Sozialfonds (ESF), Deutsche Rentenversicherung (DRV) or regional funding programs. As a regular soldier, you have the option of attending further training courses via Berufsförderungsdienst (BFD). Companies can also have their employees qualified via funding from Agentur für Arbeit (Qualifizierungschancengesetz).
