An extremely well thought out but fast-paced course to bring you up to creating any parts you can imagine in CATIA. Being able to design alongside an F1 Engineer, have thorough technical discussions, and having a group to improve with made this course so incredibly worth it. I am not sure of anywhere else where you can get this level of training and exposure that is so specific... not to mention the CATIA license.

As a student enrolled to our courses you will have access to our exclusive Community forums. You will be able to ask questions to your course instructor and start threads and discussions in our forums!
