Towards the end of the season I like to throw in a couple of slightly different episode types, see Jeff’s Sales Masterclass as an example.
This is one of those different episodes where we aren’t talking about the CFD business. Today we’re discussing NAFEMS, a not-for-profit organisation working to benefit simulation professionals worldwide.
I chat with Althea de Souza – long-time NAFEMS member, chair of their CFD working group & commissioning editor of their quarterly magazine – about:
- what NAFEMS do, who they do it for & most importantly - why should we care?
- NAFEMS’ role in advocating for CFD & trying to elevate standards as CFD becomes more mainstream;
- their efforts at getting good simulation engineers acknowledged with a certification & competency tracking scheme.
If, like me, you don’t know much about NAFEMS - then it’s definitely worth a listen.
