The SkyCiv
Learning Centre

There is currently a technical deficit in regards to the use of structural analysis software for structural engineers. Some engineering students leave university, lacking the confidence to properly model and analyse a structure using software. As a software provider, we want our users to not only operate our software, but to also have a better understanding of how our software works and feel more confident using analysis software.

Adding SkyCiv Certification to your resume can help verify your ability to use Structural Analysis Software.

Student Certification

Here at SkyCiv, we want to take up the challenge of closing the skill gap in this aspect with the introduction of our student certification program. The program aims to educate and familiarize students on using the SkyCiv product suite. With the assistance of our documentation, tutorial videos and intuitive interface, the program will hopefully make the SkyCiv suite easier to learn. Also with the entire platform being cloud-based, the program will also be convenient to use. With an active internet connection, users will be able to freely try it out anywhere and anytime.

Benefits

Of course, there are certain advantages to participating into the Student Certification program. Apart from the knowledge gained from this self-learning program, there are also other practical benefits to participating. As participants become certified, they can use this as an addition to their resume. There is also the cost savings realized when participating in these kinds of programs. Typically, these sorts of courses are not offered with certification in colleges and universities and are instead offered commercially. Little things such as these can be a financial burden and an inconvenience.
