STK Level 2 - Advanced

STK Level 2 - Advanced training builds off of STK Level 1 - Beginner. You will take simulations from STK Fundamentals a step further with advanced analysis capabilities and tools to quantify and measure mission effectiveness.

Evaluation License

You can obtain the necessary license for the training by visiting http://licensing.agi.com/stk/evaluation or contacting AGI Support at support@agi.com or 1-800-924-7244.

The Level 2 - Advanced Training is a series of tutorials designed to take a user through STK's advanced capabilities.

Once you have completed these tutorials, you will be ready to take the level 2 STK Master Certification test! Visit www.agi.com/training-and-certification#cert/ (free for U.S. and Canada). Upon registration for the level 2 Master Certification, you will receive an email confirmation with an attachment for a 14 day demo license. This license provides you access to all the capabilities needed to complete the certification. This license is for use with STK 12.2 or older. If you are using STK 12.3 or newer to complete the STK Certification test, please contact AGI Support at support@agi.com or 1-800-924-7244 for an updated license file.

Optional third-party programs

Several of the tutorials use MATLAB, Python, and/or Excel. While not required to complete the tutorials, these programs are very useful to have when using STK. If you do not have these programs, you can open example files in a text editor to view the syntax.
