Quarterly TAP Engineering Seminars

Dates of upcoming training

Denver, Colorado

Since 1990 SoftWright has conducted annual engineering seminars for our clients. Starting in 2002 we are expanding the one annual engineering seminar to four Quarterly TAP Engineering. The TAP Engineering seminar will be two full days of rf engineering instruction on how to design paging, land mobile, PCS, cellular, SCADA, WiMAx, microwave and FM/TV broadcast transmitting facilities, intermodulation prediction and treatment as well as the Asset Management software. In the sessions, you will operate the Terrain Analysis Package (TAP) rf system design software to solve numerous RF related problems. There is also a strong emphasis on how to formulate necessary engineering judgments in order to successfully design reliable rf systems. Many actual land mobile and microwave radio system design problems will be used to teach how to apply both the engineering principles and Terrain Analysis Package software tools.

Cancellation or Rescheduling Your Participation Date
If cancellation of your registration is necessary, you may send an alternate attendee without forfeiting your fee.  If your cancellation is more than seven days prior to the scheduled training, you may reschedule at that time for an upcoming  seminar up to one year in the future at no additional cost.  If cancellation is less than seven days prior to seminar date, you will receive a 50% credit from the seminar tuition cost paid.  This credit can be applied to the cost of a future training seminar within one year or other software products from SoftWright within one year. A no-show without your cancellation notification within the seven days prior to the seminar will mean that you will receive no refund of the paid tuition.
