Work smarter, save time, and learn industry practices

Steady innovation in today's electrical and mechanical CAD software has created a training challenge for virtually all engineering departments. While more engineers now have design tools readily available at their desks, many do not have enough hands-on experience with their tools to use them productively. Those who do have experience face the challenge of staying current and learning how to best take advantage of the latest version of software.

Customers with proper training will receive a much greater return on their investments. Remember, even a seemingly small productivity improvement can have a significant effect on time-to-market, and can have a noticeable effect on your bottom line. For this reason, EMA offers several different training options to meet your individual needs and budget.
EMA has developed a series of two and three day classroom training sessions on several popular topics in PCB design and mechanical engineering. These courses are presented across North America by full-time professional instructors with many years of hands-on industry experience. Laptop computers and training manuals are provided for the training.

PCB Design Classroom Training Topics:

  • OrCAD Capture
  • Analog Simulation with PSpice A/D
  • OrCAD PCB Editor

Mechanical Engineering Classroom Training Topics:

  • AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT Fundamentals

In addition to our regular classroom training sessions, EMA can arrange onsite training classes of five or more students on all the products we provide and support. These on-site sessions are ideal for customers who require classroom training but:

  • Are located too far from cities with classroom training scheduled
  • Have a group of employees in need of training
  • Require training on a topic not currently offered in classroom training format

Please contact us at 877.362.3321 or info@ema-eda.com for more information on our onsite training programs.

EMA iTrain Online is a series of self-guided Internet training solutions that enables you to become highly confident and proficient in all aspects of PCB design, circuit simulation, or timing analysis. Each iTrain course teaches design concepts and skills through a text-based three-step "explain", “demonstrate", and "hands-on" learning process, and features self-paced labs with real world design examples. Live technical support is available to answer questions as they arise, and you can evaluate your progress in a special “Test Your Knowledge” section for each course.

PCB Design Self-Guided Training Topics:

  • OrCAD Capture
  • OrCAD Capture CIS
  • PSpice A/D
  • PSpice Advanced Analysis
  • OrCAD PCB Editor
  • SPECCTRA for OrCAD

Timing Analysis Self-Guided Training Topics:

  • TimingDesigner

Additional information on iTrain courses can be found on the e iTrain webpage. Please contact us at 877.362.3321 or info@ema-eda.com for more information on our self-guided training program.

Aggressive time-to-market goals and project schedules are forcing users and organizations to find more efficient ways to receive training. At the same time, budget cuts are forcing management teams to cut down on travel expenses and reduce time spent out of the office.

To meet the challenges of today's market, EMA has created a virtual classroom training program. EMA's virtual classroom training is a half-day training session delivered over the Internet. Participants receive a hard copy of the training manual a week prior to the class, and use the manual as a reference or workbook as they follow along virtually with a live instructor. When it is time to do the lab exercises, you can access a virtual desktop which has the software and lab files already installed. Breakout sessions are available if you need special attention.

This class style provides several benefits over standard classroom training:

  • Reduced time away from office
  • Elimination of travel and lodging expenses
  • Enables multi-site training, as team members spread across geographic regions can collaborate in the same training sessions
  • Half-day sessions allow for maximum productivity
