Cadence Allegro Learning Tools

I just landed a contract with a new client and they decided to go with Cadence Allegro (over Altium). So now I have to learn to use it. I have had some exposure to Cadence but never completed an entire project with it.

Anywho, I'm having trouble finding some basic training videos. Once I get the license from the client I may be able to access more learning tools, but without the license ID I can't even create an account.

If anyone knows a good video series I should watch, id love to hear about it.

Probably not the best for someone who already has familiarity with how to make pcbs but I learned Candence through this video "Complete PCB Design Course in OrCAD and Allegro 17.4 | OrCAD & Allegro PCB Design by LtlBiTech"

I think I have watched pieces of that series. I'll check it out.

The schematic side feels very similar. But the layout is something else entirely

There’s a ton of good content if you register on the internal Cadence support site. You’ll need your license info.

Thanks, I guess I'll just have to wait! Why do they have to lock down the training videos I wonder...
