Level 3 - STK Grand Master Certification

The L3 STK Grand Master Certification expands on the Level 2 Master Certification by breaking STK’s advanced modeling and analytical functions into 7 individual Tracks focused on different application areas.

• Each Level 3 Track has 5-9 tutorials which in total takes up to 4-8 hours.
• Like Level 1 and Level 2, all trainees will have 14 days from their registration date to complete each track.
• Upon completion of any Track, trainees will receive a small glass cube with a randomly selected STK graphic etched inside.
• Upon completion of at least 4 of the Tracks, trainee will become Level 3 Certified and receive an additional large glass cube with STK graphic and spotlight.
• Trainees must be Level 1 & Level 2 certified to enroll.

• Track 1: STK Essentials

  This Level 3 Track covers the essentials of STK in detail. Trainees will learn in depth how to model chains and constellations, use terrain to constrain analysis, and design sensors.

• Track 5: Communications

  This L3 Track teaches trainees how to use the Communications module to model and analyze real-world RF and optical communications. Trainees will begin learning how to model communications objects, progress to learning how to model complex communications systems and multi-hop Comm links, and finish up analyzing communications over rough terrain using TIREM and in urban environments with UProp.
