SolidWorks® has become a worldwide industry leader in
affordable 3-D feature based parametric solid modeling
software for mechanical design and engineering. SolidWorks
utilizes an intuitive windows user interface, one of the best
in the industry, and is based on the powerful Parisolid®
kernel. Users of Pro-E®, Unigraphics®, Catia®, and other
high-end CAD softwares are discovering the portability,
shorter learning curve, and expanded power and capability of
SolidWorks that is nearing that of the big systems.
This training program has been tailored for manufacturing,
design, and engineering professionals who need to develop
skill and speed in using SolidWorks to create complex 3-D
solid models and prepare fully dimensioned engineering
drawings. This is a 5-hour class that meets one day per week
for 16 consecutive weeks. Our computer lab is state-of-the-art
with Pentium IV computers that have been properly equipped for
feature based solid modeling CAD work. This will be a
no-nonsense class that will expose the participants to
real-world modeling problems that push the envelope of
SolidWork's capability.

U.S.
employers spent an average of $647 per employee for training
between May and October 1995. (That's only one-third of the
year!) Extrapolated, that means almost $2000 per year was
spent per employee in the U.S. in 1995. (Bureau of Labor
Statistics, December 1996)
