ASAP Software Training

BRO offers a variety of software classes to enable you to efficiently and accurately solve your optical challenges using the Advanced Systems Analysis Program (ASAP®) by BRO. Courses include the introductory ASAP tutorial, application-specific ASAP tutorials, and custom training to meet your needs.

Classes are taught at BRO's training center in Tucson, Arizona, as well as International locations. At all classes, BRO provides each participant with a computer running the latest version of ASAP (and ReflectorCAD®, if appropriate).
