What are Popup courses?
The Fischer EDC popup class system is designed to teach students how to use the equipment, software and processes found in the Fischer EDC. These courses help with soft skills sometimes forgotten in academic training. Some classes require prerequisites and come in two forms, online and direct instruction. More than 2,000 students take these popup classes each semester.
