Using training resources without broadband
SolidProfessor, a San Diego based manufacturer of multimedia training exclusively for Solidworks has released its new network software for corporations and academic institutions worldwide.
SolidWorks training courses go on show
SolidProfessor will showcase its latest SolidWorks training courses at the seventh annual SolidWorks World 2005 Conference in Orlando, Florida.
Now, with the help of SolidProfessor's unique self-paced multimedia course "Core Concepts", these students will leave equipped with knowledge and experience using SolidWorks, billed as the number-one 3D mechanical design software for the mainstream market.
David Beach, of Stanford University's Mechanical Engineering Department says: "We have reviewed the available training suites and have found that SolidProfessor delivers the highest value to our students".
"Each student will have their own copy of SolidProfessor which will provide them with an outstanding resource in developing their engineering abilities".
Without SolidProfessor, Stanford considered adding additional staff to support the incoming class of over 150 students.
By providing each student with a copy of "Core Concepts", Stanford will not only aid student learning, but also control costs associated with the additional staff and time taken for handling support issues.
"Our aim is to provide SolidWorks users with the highest quality and best value possible".
"Receiving an endorsement from an institution as highly regarded as Stanford University, in spite of the many options they have for SolidWorks training, makes it clear to our team that we are hitting the mark", comments David Ptak, President of SolidProfessor.
SolidProfessor provides simple effective and different multimedia instruction for both novice and experienced users of SolidWorks.
Its flagship product "Core Concepts" includes 5 hours of balanced and proven multimedia instruction designed by top SolidWorks training professionals with years of experience.
Fundamental concepts are first presented in short, bite-sized segments followed by higher-level theory and step-by-step exercises providing a fundamental understanding of how to design using SolidWorks.
In addition, the interactive Lesson Manager provides a reference tool for reviewing a wide range of concepts and techniques quickly and easily.
