Become SimOps Certified

Build Your Expertise in Simulation Operations Automation

At SC24 in Atlanta, Wim Slagter from Ansys shared his view on SimOps, Simulation Operations Automation, and its importance for the HPC community.

Course Introduction

Welcome to the SimOps Certification Program—a comprehensive training journey designed to equip you with the skills and knowledge needed to excel in simulation operations and automation. This program is structured into three progressive levels, SimOps Fundamentals, SimOps Practitioner, and SimOps Expert, each building upon the last to provide a deep and thorough understanding of SimOps principles and practices. Upon completion, you can proudly share your certification on LinkedIn as a recognized credential, enhancing your professional profile and resume, and demonstrating your expertise in SimOps.

Wavy Abstract Background

"Improving your simulation capabilities is the key to building better products (as well as a stronger company) and I believe that SimOps is the path to doing this - just as DevOps did for software development."

Peter Ungaro, former CEO at Cray Inc. and SVP & GM at HPE 

SimOps Fundamentals

The free entry-level SimOps Fundamentals online course is designed as a self-assessment test for simulation engineers and data center experts, like for example HPC sysadmins, IT Operations, HPC infrastructure experts, simulation engineers, and their managers, in High-Performance Computing (HPC), Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) and Compute and Data Infrastructures. 

SimOps Practitioner

The free advanced-level SimOps Practitioner online course is the next level of the SimOps training course program. It is designed for experienced engineers and data center experts, like for example HPC sysadmins, IT Operations, HPC infrastructure experts, simulation engineers, and their managers, in High-Performance Computing (HPC), Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) and Compute and Data Infrastructures.

The SimOPS training covers the basics of cloud computing and provides a concise yet informative overview of how to set up a complex HPC infrastructure. Additionally, it includes a quick summary of CAE applications, demonstrating how HPC can assist engineers in enhancing the performance of their workflow while reducing the cost.

Eric Day,

Research & Development

Engineer at Ansys

As an R&D engineer developing and optimizing simulation code with regard to the underlying HPC infrastructure for our customers, I found the SimOps Fundamentals training of great help to better understand the needs of our customers, simulation engineers and HPC operations experts alike, and to successfully apply SimOps best practices to my R&D work.

Bharat Dash,

Staff Technical Program Manager

at Kforce Inc.

I took the opportunity to complete the SimOps course which focuses on automating simulation processes to significantly enhance engineers’ productivity. And, I completed the SimOps Fundamentals certification. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to elevate their practices to successfully drive simulation processes on HPC infrastructures.
