Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about the SOLIDWORKS FLOW SIMULATION training course

Is the SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation certification exam fee included in the training cost, and what is the exact exam price?
The SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation certification exam is not included in your Koenig training fee. You must purchase it separately for $49 USD per attempt via the official Dassault Systèmes certification store. This one-time payment unlocks the CSWP-Flow exam, which remains valid until you use it, with no expiration date on your credit.
What training formats are available for SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation at Koenig, and do they offer Guaranteed-to-Run scheduling?
Koenig provides SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation training through live online instructor-led, personalized 1-on-1, and classroom formats. All sessions are Guaranteed-to-Run regardless of enrollment size. This policy ensures your scheduled training proceeds as planned, giving you reliable access to expert instruction without the risk of cancellations due to low attendance.
How long is lab access provided after enrolling in the SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation course, and what type of environment is used?
Lab access for SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation training at Koenig typically matches the 2–4 day course duration. We use a BYOL (Bring Your Own Laptop) model requiring a local installation of SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation. You must have access to SOLIDWORKS 2018 or later with the Flow Simulation add-on, as cloud sandboxes are not standard.
What is Koenig's rescheduling and cancellation policy for the SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation course?
Koenig allows free rescheduling of your SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation course if requested more than 10 days before the start date. Cancellations or rescheduling within 10 days incur a 50% fee of the total purchase price. Per our Terms of Service, you may only reschedule the same training session one time.
What is the format, number of questions, passing score, and time limit for the SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation certification exam?
The SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation Professional (CSWP-Flow) exam features 13 hands-on questions with a 90-minute time limit. You must achieve a 70% passing score, as defined by Dassault Systèmes. This exam validates your practical mastery of fluid flow analysis, including meshing, boundary conditions, and result interpretation within the SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation software environment.
How long is the SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation certification valid, and what is the renewal process and cost?
The SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation Professional (CSWP-Flow) certification is valid indefinitely. According to Dassault Systèmes, there is no expiration, renewal process, or recurring fee. We encourage certified professionals to take updated exams when new software versions launch to ensure their skills remain current with evolving CFD industry practices.
What post-training support does Koenig provide after completing the SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation course?
Koenig supports your success with access to session recordings, expert mentor availability for technical questions, and options under our Happiness Guarantee. Most engineering courses include 30–60 days of follow-up support. This ensures you can confidently apply your new SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation skills to real-world projects and prepare effectively for your certification.
What prerequisites or prior experience are recommended before taking the SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation course?
Before starting SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation training, we recommend completing the SOLIDWORKS Essentials course. You should possess equivalent experience in mechanical design and understand basic fluid dynamics and heat transfer principles. Familiarity with CAD modeling and the Windows operating system is essential for successfully navigating the course materials and simulation workflows.
What salary increase or career opportunities can professionals expect after earning the SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation certification?
Earning your SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation certification boosts your career potential. Professionals with these skills earn an average of $93,471 annually in the U.S., with experts reaching $179,170, according to June 2026 Salary.com data. This credential increases your value in roles like CFD Analyst or Design Engineer, providing a distinct competitive edge in simulation-driven industries.
How does formal training in SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation compare to self-study in terms of exam success and skill mastery?
Formal training accelerates your exam readiness far more effectively than self-study. You gain structured learning, hands-on labs, and expert guidance on complex topics like conjugate heat transfer and mesh refinement. Koenig’s instructor-led approach ensures you master the specific CSWP-Flow exam objectives and professional simulation workflows required for high-level engineering success.
