Maxsurf Training

We offer you the following training options:

  • Online training:
    • Learning Maxsurf - Free! For new users and users of the demonstration version this should be the first step in familiarising yourself with our software. Experienced users may also find this content useful as a refresher or to improve conceptual understanding of the software.
    • Intermediate & Advanced - This material is currently under development.

  • Custom training:
    Training in the areas of the software that you feel would most benefit your business processes. Prior to the training, a trainer will assess your training requirements and prepare a training schedule accordingly. All modules of the Maxsurf and Multiframe Suite can be covered. It is recommended to familiarise yourself with the software prior to the training by going through the free Learning Maxsurf training material.


    For an approximate training outline that covers Maxsurf, Hydromax, Seakeeper and Hullspeed click here. For Workshop, add one extra day. Note: this is very dependent on existing skills and whether you have familiarised yourself with the software prior to the training.

    Custom training can be provide either at:
    • Formation Design Systems head office in Fremantle. Minimum lead time approx 2 weeks.
    • Your office. One of our experienced trainers will come to your office and train you and your colleagues.  You should allow at least 6 weeks for us to organise the training.

  • Training Courses
    Due to the specific nature of each user's training requirements, Formation Design Systems generally does not offer scheduled training courses.
