What Is Training?
Wilson & Associates produces SoftPlan training seminars in state-of-the-art classroom locations in which certified top-gun certified instructors offer in-depth and construction-specific training classes. These SoftPlan Training programs consist of various levels of instruction tailored to the individual User's background and experience with the SoftPlan program.
Why Consider SoftPlan Training?
For SoftPlan Users who want to ramp-up quickly and gain in-depth knowledge to use SoftPlan to its fullest potential, these training courses are a must. Our instructors will teach you the tips, tricks and shortcuts to help you quickly and efficiently reach the goals you first set when you purchased SoftPlan.
Real-World Instructors
Our trainers are not technical support staffers, and our trainers don't teach theory. What we do teach are practical, hands-on, real-world concepts for real-world SoftPlan users. Each of our trainers is a SoftPlan Top Gun user with at least 10 years of daily SoftPlan use. Our instructors cut to the chase and teach you the tips, tricks and shortcuts of the entire SoftPlan system.
Gaining The Edge Over Competitors
In this competitive market we now find ourselves in, it is important to gain every advantage we can over our competitors. You can gain that edge with SoftPlan hands-on training. Complete a course, and you'll be at the top of your game, maximize your productivity, increase your confidence and be far more competitive. Not because we say so--but because our course graduates say so. Since 1993, Wilson & Associates has trained more than 3000 SoftPlan users in Florida and nationwide.
Personal Attention
You will also benefit from the personal attention you receive in these training sessions as our trainers answer specific questions that you may have about SoftPlan, Florida construction or code-specific applications of the program.
Small Class Size
Sizes of classes are kept small to ensure that every student receives personal attention. Since we believe that the Hands-On method of learning is invaluable to learn SoftPlan properly, we provide each student with their own computer to work on! Our new training facility is based in Orlando, Florida with satellite facilities in fourteen cities nationwide. These training facilities will seat up to 15 people at individual CAD workstations using the latest version of SoftPlan.
Tips, Tricks And Shortcuts
Our expert trainers are the Top Guns of their trade. They provide classes packed with tips, tricks and shortcuts to using and applying SoftPlan to real world design and build situations.

Primary training facilities are provided by Microtek Computer Labs, located very near Orlando International Airport in Orlando, Florida. Microtek also provides Wilson & Associates with 16 additional facilities in most major cities in the U.S. As with all Microtek locations, the Orlando facility is state-of-the-art and contains seven different classrooms seating up to 24 students each. Every student has the use of the training lab, a Dell CAD workstation, various printers and FAX's, high-speed internet access, e-mail access, breakfast, lunch and snacks.
