Our roster of March crash courses will set in motion tomorrow, March 5, starting with our first spring course, Beginner Design for 3D Printing! There’s still time to sign up for the one-week online class, which mixes two live guest speaker sessions with online discussions and personalized help from an industry expert.
In the live webcast session and workshop, you’ll learn the essentials of 3D modeling programs (CAD) and the design rules for 3D printing from design experts. This foundational course will cover the complete design process, from conception through final prototype. You’ll hear from speakers Jordan Pelovitz, Senior 3D Artist at Wayfair, and Jason Slingerland, QA Engineer at OnShape.


Speakers Jordan Pelovitz, Jason Singerland
The course will focus on learning design and printing principles, and learning how to apply them to cutting-edge tools. You’ll get accompanying guided assignments to help you create a unique design in just a few days.
This first beginner course is part of the cumulative crash course series that launches tomorrow. Bundling these courses not only gives you a unique learning experience and enriches your 3D printing knowledge but also saves you money. Here are the other courses to check out:
