Esperan delivers tool-independent language and methodology training for the Electronics Design Industry. Our courses cover design, verification, assertion and scripting languages such as SystemVerilog, VHDL, SystemC, Specman e and Perl.
Here are the key issues which set us apart from other training providers:-
Experience
Esperan has been developing and delivering training courses since 1993. We have considerable expertise in creating content which is clear, relevant and essential. Our
focus has always been on practical application, IEEE standards and industry best-practices to give you the best return on your investment with us.
Expert Developers
To fully understand a technical language and methodology is hard enough. To be able to communicate this knowledge to other engineers takes a another completely different set of skills. To have the technical knowledge, the communication skills and the passion and motivation to educate engineers to the highest level takes a very rare set of talents. The three core technical members of our development and delivery team have over 40 years combined experience with Esperan. They develop the clear, clean, concise material for which Esperan is famous.
Expert Trainers with the Personal Touch
Your trainer will bring real added value to the course. Esperan trainers are hand-picked for their technical knowledge and communication skills. All our trainers are current engineers with experience of the widest variety of the most challenging designs. In all cases, you will be trained by either the developer of the class, or by a trainer directly mentored by the developer. Each individual that we train has a different background and different needs. Our trainers appreciate this fact, and you will always find them willing to take extra time with individual delegates to meet their specific requirements.
High Quality, Independent, Standards-based Content.
As education is our sole business, we have a strong philosophy on how to organize training materials. Our courses are extremely well structured to present the information in a clear and concise manner. Our courses are based on our own experts' experiences with the language, tools and methodologies, rather than simply copying language documentation. Our material is always based on IEEE standards and accepted industry best-practices, free from any bias towards a specific supplier. Our courses support the use of software from a range of vendors, and our trainers are 100% focused on your requirements rather than someone else’s!
Flexibility
We recognize that everyone has different requirements. Whether your particular needs concern customized course content or a specific form of commercial agreement, we will always take an open minded, flexible approach to ensuring your needs are met. We're always happy to discuss your specific requirements and deliver courses customised to our needs. However we will also always be honest with you over the content you can cover in the time available.
Innovation
Esperan have always embraced innovation to offer our customers the latest technical solutions to their training needs. We were the first EDA training company to offer CDROM tutorials; custom-built development boards and on-line seminars. The majority of our classes are already available as internet-based training, and we are now delivering Virtual Classes to bring all the benefits of a live class to your desktop.
Global Reach
We are the leading supplier of world-wide methodology training, with sales offices and scheduled public courses throughout Europe, North America and Asia. We have delivered classes in Japan, Singapore, Northern and Southern Africa, Brazil and Australia. Courses can be taught in English or your chosen language to provide a complete solution for all multi-national companies.
Small Company Style Backed Up By A Large Company’s Resources.
Esperan operates as an independent arm of Cadence Design Systems’ Methodology Services division. We have retained all of the positive aspects of our business that allows us to operate in an independent, small company style, backed up by the resources of a larger company.
