Professional Education International and SpreadsheetWorld present Excel/VBA course Spreadsheet Aided Engineering" at Mackinac Island, Michigan this summer.

Encino, CA - - April 12, 2002 - - Professional Education International and SpreadsheetWorld present the 106th offering of the Spreadsheet Aided Engineering course June 24-28, 2002 at the Murray Hotel on Mackinac Island, Michigan.

The spreadsheet & VBA are powerful tools that are vastly under utilized in the engineering profession. There is a tendency to view the spreadsheet in terms of its limited capability in early versions, but it is important that engineers become more aware of the power and capability of current versions." says Dr. Tom Mincer, Professor of Mechanical Engineering at California State University and President of SpreadsheetWorld.

The course is designed to achieve that objective by reinforcing the concepts with real life examples. Participants develop an increased overall understanding of their systems and processes, increased integration of engineering disciplines and better intuition of performance dependence on design parameters.

Engineers who have participated in the on-site, public and self-study versions of Spreadsheet Aided Engineering learned how to integrate Visual Basic, Fortran or C with Excel, Develop add-in collections for rapid functional modeling, use Excel ActiveX controls for engineering project control and do dynamic system simulation inside the optimization loop.

Dr. Mincer has developed this outstanding workshop over the last 7 years. Spreadsheet Aided Engineering has been offered over 100 times to more than 1,500 engineers at companies such as Lockheed Martin, Northrop-Grumman, NASA, Dow Chemical, General Motors, Goodyear Tire & Rubber, Pratt & Whitney and Harley-Davidson. It is available in on-site, public and self-study versions.

SpreadsheetWorld also offers 30 additional Spreadsheet and Visual Basic courses including FORTRAN, DLLs & Integration with Excel/VBA and Visual Basic for Applications.
