Staff Engineer
System Verilog training by Siva gave me a great opportunity to look into modern verification concepts using System Verilog. Through the course I could learn to develop a robust testbench which can generate different testcase scenarios using the concepts of Object Oriented Programming. Learning Assertion Based Verification was also an added advantage which is in high demand in todays Verification job market. I am sure this training will not only give openings to job seekers but also help to create great interest in Verificati
