Navisworks training programs
The trainings are organized on a company-by-company basis either in the company's offices, in Profox's offices (Helsinki / Turku) or in a separately agreed training room. Online training is also possible and very popular, especially during the COVID-19 epidemic. The schedule of online trainings is always agreed on a customer-by-customer basis. We recommend organizing distance learning sessions in 90-120 minute periods.
