Course Philosophy
SolidWorks concepts are first thoroughly examined as
individual elements and later combined in step-by-step
exercises for the user to follow. This philosophy has
proven successful in teaching the mechanics (the
"clicks"), of using SolidWorks as well as reinforcing best
modeling practices - both vital to true productivity. The
course interface is designed for ease of use while still
making topics available at the click of a button for fast
reference.
Who is Using SolidProfessor
Professionals
The demand for SolidWorks skills in the design, engineering, and manufacturing job markets is
huge and continuing to grow. A quick review of engineering job postings is all you need to
convince yourself of this reality if you are not already convinced. This demand for SolidWorks
skills has forced many professionals to seek SolidWorks training on their own time and with
their own money. Add to this the difficulty in obtaining training during evening or weekend hours
and you might questions whether you will ever be able to add SolidWorks to your resume. With
SolidProfessor you can.
