Excellent course, our instructor was eager to help us understand not only the mechanics of the SolidWorks program but also the ‘Design Intent’ behind modelling. He was able to demonstrate several methods of accessing features and stressed the importance of knowing where to look rather than simple memorization. Questions were answered with illustrative examples for concept both in the course material and beyond the ‘essentials’. I will look forward to taking another course for more advanced topics, especially with this instructor.
