There's a new post on our blog titled... COMSOL Training - The Truth About our Classes. It wasn't easy to write and we even felt a little worried that some of you might actually think we were being a little too cute. But once we put our training calendar together, and started taking registrations for our classes next month, it hit us... There really are some very good reasons NOT to enroll in our COMSOL Training classes. So we decided to put a list together and share it with you. Here are the top eleven reasons in random order:

1. I shouldn't have to work very hard to master COMSOL and this training should be easy.
2. I'm sure there's a manual I can read if I get stuck since it's just a piece of software.
3. I never really wanted to be that well-versed in knowing how to use software to create & innovate new technologies.
4. I prefer to keep all my learning at 30,000' and avoid the details.
5. I only want to achieve a "casual-user" level of expertise while I am developing products that could save lives and make money.
6. I would hate to learn from people who use it every day in real life situations to solve unbelievably complex problems from all over the world.
7. I only use it occasionally so I don't need it to work properly.
8. I am fully conversant with all the nuances, functionality and operation of all the modules.
9. I always solve all of my problems quickly and correctly the first time.
10. I have someone in my office who uses COMSOL so I can always bounce ideas off them.
11. I don't want to solve problems, just identify that they are there.

What can we say... We're crazy about wanting to see people master COMSOL! But don't blame us... blame COMSOL for developing such a powerful tool.

We do not provide a 30,000' view. Instead, we tunnel deep into the everyday use of COMSOL. We are not looking to train the casual user - rather, we are looking to train those who want to master the functionality in COMSOL to maximize its effectiveness. We are not selling COMSOL, but if we could we would. We use COMSOL daily to solve a wide range of problems from CFD to Structural, from Plasma to Heat Transfer, from Electromagnetics to Acoustics and single physics to problems with more physics than we have fingers and toes. We have shown that COMSOL can address problems previously considered intractable and provide insight, guidance and knowledge to help new technologies reach the market place. This is why we offer classes... so others can do the same.

If you are working your way through COMSOL and you truly want to master it, we would love to serve you. We can help you join the ranks of those who are crazy about COMSOL!

Until next time...
