Economical training classes are a great way for current users to extend their PSS®CAPE skills and for new users to get the “big picture” quickly. You can sign up in half-day segments. You’ll need to bring your own laptop and if you like, your own database. 

Choose your topics when you register. Each topic is a half-day class except "PSS®CAPE for New Users" which is a full day. We create a custom class schedule based on your selected class preferences and provide final training schedules at on-site registration check-in. You will be contacted prior to the UGM if we have any difficulties accommodating your requests. Training class topics:

  • PSS®CAPE for New Users (1 full day - covers Database Editor, Short Circuit, One-Line Diagram, and Coordination Graphics)
  • NERC PRC compliance reporting using PSS®CAPE - practical application of the NERC PRC standard macros available in PSS®CAPE
