FME Courses

NAVIGATE staff are among the first in the world to be officially accredited to deliver FME training by SAFE. We are able to deliver courses in house on clients sites and can supply software, manuals, workbooks, training data and exercises. An  initial 2 day course is a well balanced initiation to FME for new users. The optional third day opens up some of the more complex operations that can be performed by FME.
