TT100: TUFLOW Introductory Training

An introduction to TUFLOW fixed grid flood modelling

TT100: TUFLOW Introductory Training

Overview

The TUFLOW Introductory Training course includes content on TUFLOW theory, followed by practical model creation and result viewing exercises using the QGIS TUFLOW Viewer. It is our most popular course, and is offered in three separate formats, eLearning (24/7 online), teacher led online (live Zoom), and teacher led face-to-face (classroom). All three formats cover identical material and are fully interactive, with each attendee building, updating, and running TUFLOW models with ample opportunity to interact and discuss topics with TUFLOW's expert trainers.
