Enea - Focusing on our Customers' Success

Enea is a global software and services company focused on solutions for communication-driven products.

For more than 40 years, Enea has been a leading global provider of system software, development tools and professional services for high-availability, mission-critical telecom, mobile, medical, automotive and military/aerospace. With a team of over 700 people, Enea offers best-in-class solutions to solve complex technical problems.

Enea offers comprehensive training services for developers who want to get up to speed quickly and maximize their productivity with Enea’s operating system, middleware, and database products.

At Enea, we have many years of experience in developing and offering courses and seminars in our areas of competence and expertise. In effect, this means courses in the latest technologies, because we strive to remain at the cutting edge of technology. For example, we were the first to hold courses in UNIX, C++ and Java for embedded systems.

The majority of our courses are developed in-house, and our consultants are the instructors. This guarantees that the level of the courses remains high, since we teach in the areas in which we are working. The content of our courses reflects our competence and we can therefore offer a broad range of advanced technical courses within the technological scopes of all our Technology Areas – from hardware and various programming languages to testing and project management, for example.

Our Training offer includes both standard courses, which are described in our course catalogue; and customized courses, developed and held on request. Training can also be included as part of an assignment where we develop a system for testing, communication and real-time applications, for example, and then train the customer in the programming language we have used in the development.

In addition to the courses, we also offer seminars. These are held as scheduled breakfast or lunch seminars, generally covering on exciting new areas of technology. In addition a number of more in-depth seminars may be held on request.
