For last 2 years, I have been re-searching about SoC verification online/offline course, met about 50 different people and read more than 40 research papers. No where did I come across a single page or pdf, which would provide the “Philosophy of Verification”. That’s the way our previous online courses had worked the best among students

Any teaching should finish 2 things – “what, why, how” – And it should start with “what” i.e. “What is verification?” Keep this question in front of verification freshers or experts, 80% of time I have heard a reply which is very good from a productivity point of view, but somehow doesn’t qualify for students learning.

That’s when I met “Puneet Goel”, who’s about 25+ years of experience in Verification, and only person in India, who has invented his own open-source tool “Embedded-UVM” built using “D programming language” to take advantage of concurrency mechanisms. Trust me – when someone invents his/her own tool, he/she knows what exactly pros and cons of existing tools is. Moreover, no one can beat their basics, as to invent a tool, you need to have strong foundations of Verification

So, we teamed up, worked upon a curriculum which exactly fits for students and for people from other VLSI back-ground who want to switch to verification for work purpose. Believe me, a lot of “hand-crafting” has gone behind the scenes to release the verification course for you. Here’s the link (100 coupons only for first 100 enrollments)

https://www.udemy.com/course/functional-verification-using-embedded-uvm-part-1/?couponCode=19683A33396EFEF99339

This is the “Part 1” in the whole series of 5-Parts. This covers tool installation as well.

If you have taken my previous online Physical design and STA courses, this course is similarly designed, right from basics (above Part 1) to advanced (to be released Part 5) i.e. from concepts to hands-on labs...

Step in, learn new things, empower your self with open-source tools and there is nothing stopping you from conquering this domain

All the best and happy learning ……
