A rich set of step-by-step tutorials has been developed to aid in learning how to use SMS.
Tutorial Installation

Some of the additional tutorials (TUFLOW, PTM, CGWAVE) still need to be downloaded separately. Since many users only need a subset of the tutorials, the recommended approach is to download and install them as needed from the SMS learning center.
