TUFLOW Education and Training

"2021 is turning out to be an exciting year for education and training. A detailed summary of highlights from earlier this year and upcoming events for the second half of 2021 is provided below. Whether it be virtually or face-to-face we look forward to catching up with you either at the TUFLOW User Conference, via the live Q&A segment of our webinars or at our training events." 

Pavlina Monhartova, TUFLOW Support and Training Lead 

UK/Europe User Conference

The TUFLOW UK/Europe User Conference is scheduled for September in Bristol, United Kingdom. It is the premier event in the region for TUFLOW modellers and end users from government agencies, local authorities, and consultancy. The event is an excellent opportunity to network, immerse yourself in the latest and greatest TUFLOW functionality, learn of novel software applications and discuss contemporary integrated urban drainage, catchment flood and coastal risk topics with like-minded people from industry.

With a fully packed schedule featuring a range of user presentations, round table discussions, Q&A sessions and practical tips, the event is designed for both modellers and non-modellers, whether they be experienced or new to the industry.  Early bird tickets are now available here so don't miss out on finding out what's new with the software and learn about the future applications of hydraulic and environmental modelling and how TUFLOW developments will help users meet the challenges of today and the future.

Free Monthly Webinars

We have been running free monthly educational webinars in partnership with the Australian Water School since mid-2020. The webinars have been immensely popular, attracting between 600 and 1,200 registrations around the world for the live presentation and question/answer session.

Recordings of past webinars and registration links for upcoming events are available via the TUFLOW Library. Visit the Library if you’re interested in any of the following topics:

Training (eLearning and Instructor Guided)

Earlier this year we published new training material in an eLearning format. The training has been very well received. In under three months over 150 people have completed one or more of the courses. The major benefit of this new format compared to in-person training is the unrivalled accessibility. It enables 24/7 access to the guided training material for a period of 6 weeks.

In response to the popularity of this new training delivery method we are currently working on additional new courses to add to the registry.  We have recently launched our new course, “Introduction to Python for TUFLOW”.

Further to the new eLearning content we have also finalised our instructor guided training schedule for the second half of 2021. All training details are summarised in the table below. Register via the Training page of the website.
