Programme overview
This 3-day Advanced UVM training class teaches advanced and expert UVM Verification techniques. This course is not recommended for engineers who are new to UVM or engineers with less than two years of UVM verification experience. In 2024, Reruns of this course are scheduled on 20 - 22 Feb and 4 - 6 June. delivered It was previously delivered on 5 - 7 Apr and 4,7,8 Nov 2022
The course tutor, Cliff Cummings, is based in Utah, 7 hours behind Irish time, so the course will be held each day from 11am to 6pm.
