Join us for three days of immersive learning at the ESI Space Workshop hosted at the University of Alabama – Huntsville.
Day one offers a complimentary overview of industry-validated simulation solutions and VA One UI Training.
Day 2 and 3 offers a deeper dive into structural dynamics and acoustics training led by industry experts.
The cost is $250 per person for both training days or attendees may opt to join for only one additional day for $125 per person.
