SCADE Training
A Comprehensive Training Program
Because we develop, market and sell SCADE, we have vital links with our customers.
Their feedback gives us the opportunity to improve the strong background of our
training so that we are able to share this knowledge with you through a comprehensive
training course.
Practice is the strength of our curriculum
Half of our program is dedicated to practical work through the use of workstations,
exercises and case studies.
Our Trainers are Highly Competent
All of our trainers are very experienced in fundamental computer science, have practical
experience through the development of projects, and are highly experienced in training.
Training Location
Trainings take place in our training centers in Elancourt (Paris area), Villeneuve-Loubet
(Nice area . French Riviera), Toulouse, or at customer’s site.
In the case where the training is delivered at customer site, the minimal configuration
for trainees’ computer is the following:
- Processor
- 1,5 Ghz Pentium 4
- RAM

- Microsoft Visual 6 C++ is recommended, though SCADE comes with the GCC (MinGW)
free compiler.
Materials
Esterel Technologies supplies course-related materials, including:
- Training Manuals
- Reference Cards
- Reference Guide
- CD-ROM including e-versions of the materials above, additional documentation, and exercises and labs solutions
SCADE Training Program Overview
The SCADE Training is divided in Modules. A Module is a set of courses dedicated to a
particular SCADE activity in the SCADE software development process life cycle task or
to a particular SCADE feature.
The SCADE training is composed of five Modules numbered from M1 to M5. Figure 1
shows the process task each Module covers, which are:
- Module M1: Model-based design with SCADE
- Module M2: Model-based verification
- Module M3: Model-based automatic code generation
- Module M4: Project Management with SCADE
- Module M5: SCADE Advanced
