Course Introduction
Welcome to the SimOps Certification Program—a comprehensive training journey designed to equip you with the skills and knowledge needed to excel in simulation operations and automation. This program is structured into three progressive levels, SimOps Fundamentals, SimOps Practitioner, and SimOps Expert, each building upon the last to provide a deep and thorough understanding of SimOps principles and practices. Upon completion, you can proudly share your certification on LinkedIn as a recognized credential, enhancing your professional profile and resume, and demonstrating your expertise in SimOps.
"Improving your simulation capabilities is the key to building better products (as well as a stronger company) and I believe that SimOps is the path to doing this - just as DevOps did for software development."
Peter Ungaro, former CEO at Cray Inc. and SVP & GM at HPE
SimOps Fundamentals
The free SimOps Fundamentals online course is designed as a self-assessment test for experienced simulation engineers and data center experts (like system administrators) in High-Performance Computing (HPC), Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) and Compute and Data Infrastructures. This course is tailored to challenge and validate your skills in the operations and use of HPC and HPC Cloud infrastructures for engineering simulations. It serves as a preparation for the next training levels of SimOps Practitioner and SimOps Expert (both coming soon). This certification provides a formal recognition of your expertise and supports your professional development and resume.
Duration: 1 - 2 hours
Certification: Demonstrate your expertise by completing the course and passing a 35-question exam to earn your SimOps Fundamentals Certificate.
