How you'll learn
100% online training on the SEIUM campus, with downloadable material, recorded classes and an assigned technical tutor. There are no fixed timetables: students progress at their own pace within the intake, which makes it possible to combine the programme with work.
Each module combines theory, guided reading of the original standard and applied exercises. The working software is Figma, Miro, advanced Excel, R, Power BI, in free, academic or evaluation versions. Tests are studied using real procedures for prototype design of hybrid products, customer testing, and product and service economic models. Assessment is continuous, module by module, plus the final integrating project.
