Institute Offers CAD Courses

Bentley Systems has formed the MicroStation Institute, a high-quality training program in CAD that assigns professional credentials and maintains a registry of trained users.

The program offers a comprehensive curriculum of Bentley courses available worldwide at authorized training sites, called MicroStation Productivity Centers (MPCs).

All courses are verified and documented, allowing attendees to maintain a "portfolio" of credentials. Employers may use these credentials and released registry information as a resource in their search for professionals with particular skills.

Courses are modular and can be customized to match students' needs. Bentley assumes responsibility for the courseware; MPCs are operated by VARs. Bentley Systems, Exton, PA, (800) BENTLEY, www.bentley.com.
