The added value of GEO5 software is that thanks to the intuitive user interface we can concentrate on the technical aspects of the tasks when teaching and not have to spend time on explaining how to work with the software. 

Ing. Jan Kos, CSc., Geotechnical Department, Technical University in Prague

When teaching the use and interpretation of a good software like GEO5, not only allow the student to evaluate and understand the behaviour of a structure in the field in front of the design made, but also bring us their big smile and their eternal thank.

Daniel Alberto Moreno, Civil Engineer, Profesor at Universidad Santo Tomás de Tunja

Thanks to the engineering manuals, students can learn how to solve the problems themselves using the GEO5 software. That gives more time to discuss the different design approaches and solutions in the lesson.
