Industry Workshop SCIA Engineer
Industry workshop organised by SCIA and hosted by The Institution of Structural Engineers
On Thursday 19 September 2019, you can participate in the SCIA industry workshop hosted by The Institution of Structural Engineers.
This is a unique opportunity to learn about a variety of topics on how to overcome the everyday structural engineering challenges with the help of structural engineering software. Experts from SCIA and the industry will present you all the latest insights. You will also have the opportunity to network with your peers from the industry.
Each of these topics will be illustrated and demonstrated with insightful, practical cases from real-life projects.
For all attendees, there is a chance to win a VIP ticket (value £300) to the Euro 2020 qualifier game England-Montenegro on November 14th, 2019.
