  The Skills for Technology Project - Free training for marine, aerospace and space manufacturing


Manufacturing Consortium partner ATG-Training in Aylesbury has received funding from the South East of England Development Agency (SEEDA) and the European Social Fund (ESF) to offer completely free training for local manufacturers working in the marine, aerospace or space sectors. The details are as follows:


CAD COURSES


Computer Aided Design Workshop 1 CAD 01 (2 Day) EAL Approved

Suitable for delegates who wish to gain an understanding of and be able to use a 2 dimensional drawing package (AutoCAD 2008) at level 3 and above.



Computer Aided Design Workshop 2 CAD 02 (2 Day) EAL Approved

Suitable for delegates who wish to gain a more advanced understanding of AutoCAD 2008 and be able to use 2 dimensional drawing at level 3 and above.

This workshop is intended for those who require more advanced knowledge of AutoCAD 2008 and skills to enable 2D drawing to be created with greater productivity.



Computer Aided Design Workshop 3 CAD 03 (2 Day) EAL Approved

Suitable for delegates who wish to gain a more advanced understanding of AutoCAD 2008 and be able to use 2 dimensional drawing at level 3 and above. This course is intended to give the student advanced knowledge of AutoCAD 2008 software, providing details of background settings and advanced drawing manipulation, data transfer.


Inventor Workshop CAD 04 (2 Day) EAL Approved

Suitable delegates: Engineers, designers, drafters, and professionals who wish to produce 3-D drawings/models for a particular discipline or engineering application using Inventor.



NEW - 1 Day Computer Aided Design (CAD) 2008 - 2009 Conversion Course
