Echoview Training
An Echoview training course will provide you with the skills to understand your single-beam and/or multibeam echosounder data, and to process it efficiently and accurately using Echoview.
We offer a range of course options to suit your varying needs:
- Online or face-to-face
- Public or private
- Fundamental or Advanced
Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned veteran, we believe there is always more to learn with respect to:
- Echosounder theory
- Digital signal processing
- Echoview features
- Data-processing workflow
If you can't find a public course to suit and/or you're interested in a private course, please email us at training@echoview.com and let's work something out!
SCHEDULED COURSES AND PRICING
Fundamentals and Advanced public courses for a variety of time zones are listed below.
For further details on Echoview training courses, please check out our training brochure.
*New opportunity! We're currently canvassing interest in specialized training for wideband-echosounder data processing. Please let us know if you'd like to know more by emailing training@echoview.com.
"It was well-structured and easy to follow. Toby was a great teacher and explained topics very well. The materials provided will be incredibly useful in the future as well. Thank you."

Echoview training feedback/testimonial
An Echoview training course brings "...clearness, the great way of teaching, making everything so clear and understandable, even the most scary equations. I came with no knowledge, and have the feeling I am ready to explore acoustics on my own, and that I understand the principles of it."
Dr Toby Jarvis, Acoustician
The Fundamental training course provides "...a really nice overview and introduction to the principles of hydroacoustics to actually establish a base knowledge of the underlying concepts. Having gone through this makes every data collection step and data processing process 100% more logical and allows you to build on that knowledge... I would recommend it without a doubt to every new student that will come into the lab and wants to work with hydroacoustics."
