HandsOn-Training is a premier global provider of high-level technology training and expert design services, specializing in the most advanced sectors of the Hi-Tech industry. Founded by Oren Hollander, an industry veteran and Approved Arm & Altera trainer, the company serves as a professional know-how center for R&D engineers, architects, and security researchers. HandsOn-Training bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and industrial application by focusing exclusively on practical, "hands-on" learning.

The company specializes in several critical technology domains:

FPGA & ASIC Design: Recognized as a leading training partner for Altera, the company offers comprehensive courses on SoC FPGA design, timing closure, high-performance coding styles, and complex project integration.

ARM Architecture: As an ARM Approved Training Center (ATC), the company provides official certification and in-depth training on the entire ARM portfolio, including Cortex-A, R, and M series, TrustZone security, and the latest v8/v9 architectures.

Embedded Security: A leader in hardware-centric security, HandsOn-Training provides advanced courses in hardware hacking, side-channel analysis (SCA), fault injection (FI), and defensive strategies for embedded systems.

Verification: Expert training in ASIC/FPGA verification using SystemVerilog and UVM (Universal Verification Methodology).

AI & Embedded Systems: Specializing in AI acceleration (such as Ethos-U), Computer Vision, Embedded Linux, and RTOS development.

The "Hands-On" Difference What sets HandsOn-Training apart is its commitment to practical application. All courses integrate intensive lab work using real hardware, evaluation boards, emulators, and industry-standard development tools. Our "special sauce" combines official vendor materials (from partners like Arm, Altera, NXP) with proprietary content derived from decades of real-world design experience and thousands of solved industrial challenges.

Design House & Consultancy Services Beyond training, HandsOn-Training operates as a high-end design house. This dual nature allows us to offer consultancy services that provide a full system perspective—covering Hardware, Firmware, Software, Verification, and Security. Companies can partner with HandsOn-Training for project-specific design services, power consumption optimization, and hardware-software partitioning.

HandsOn-Training delivers its services worldwide, including the US, Europe, Israel, and Asia. They offer flexible training delivery models to suit corporate needs:

In-House Training: Tailored programs delivered at the client’s site, often customized to the client’s specific project hardware.

Public Courses: Open-enrollment classes for individuals or small teams.

Online Live Training: Interactive, remote instructor-led sessions that eliminate travel costs while maintaining lab quality.

FPGA security becomes an issue need to be addressed by companies. FPGA designers usually don’t have the background and experience with security understanding and implementation. This training close that gap and provide a wide view on security various use cases.

Altera Agilex™ 5 Family provides midrange FPGAs offering world-class features and capabilities that address design challenges across various markets. The new architecture (HyperFlex II), various features,and SoC design are covered during the training.

Arm TrustZone technology provides a cost-effective methodology to isolate security critical components in a system, by hardware separating a rich operating system, from a much smaller, secure operating system. This training covers all aspects of TrustZone from CPU level up to system level, including debug, exception handling, virtualization, MMU, secure boot, and system architecture.

Side-Channel Power Analysis - that freaky method of extracting secret keys from embedded systems that doesn’t rely on exploits or coding errors. It can be used to read out an AES-128 key in less than 60 seconds from a standard implementation on a small microcontroller. Are your products vulnerable to such an attack? This course is loaded with hands-on examples to teach you not only about the attacks and theories, but how to apply them. Fault Injection Attacks - can you even trust your hardware? This training will cover fault injection attacks (also known as glitch attacks) on embedded systems. These attacks allow you to entirely bypass security mechanisms, dump memory over communication interfaces, and wreak havoc for fun and profit. Countermeasures - Easy to grasp examples example vulnerable implementations are discussed along with industry best practices to counter and mitigate the advanced hardware attacks.

Threat Modeling is considered as one of the most effective ways to reduce the risk and increase the security of applications and systems of any kind (PC, Mobile, Web, Server/Cloud, Embedded, IoT, Automotive, Aviation, Medical, etc.). As a structured process, it can be used to help to identify potential threats, attacks, vulnerabilities, and countermeasures that could impact your applications. Whether you're a developer, executive, security engineer, or just interest in protecting your product, this training is for you! You cannot protect something unless you understand what you're protecting it from. In this hands-on training, you'll be the ins and outs of Threat Modeling.

Extensive hands-on labs to practice all necessary aspects of the CPU.

Looking to train your employees to become FPGA designers? The Altera FPGA Designer Program was developed for such purpose. The course intention is to train computer and electronics engineers from scratch to a practical work level. The course goes into great depth, and touches upon every aspect of the VHDL standard and Altera FPGA design with directly connected to the topics needed in the industry today. The course combines 50% theory with 50% practical work in every meeting with Terasic DE0-CV evaluation board. The practical labs cover all the theory and also include practical digital design. The program provides extra labs/mini projects for homework between meetings.
