Creo Mechanical Design Applications Specialist

This program prepares you to be a proficient 3D Parametric Solid Modeler & Detailer using an industry-standard 3D Mechanical Computer-Aided Design (MCAD) tool called Creo (formerly known as Pro/ENGINEER).  You will learn to create 3D models and produce technically accurate drawings of electro/mechanical parts, mechanisms and assemblies while learning industry-standard drafting & modeling practices. Optional electives include core training in SolidWorks, Inventor and Revit. Students successfully completing this program will receive the industry-recognized Creo Fundamentals Certification.

You will be taught industry-standard skills and tools used by major discreet manufacturers and product development companies.   

Core Creo courseware includes: Creo: Basics of Creo Capabilities and Design Process, Basics Interface and Modeling Concepts, Basics of Modeling, Fundamentals Overview, Interface, Modeling, and Workflow Updates, Fundamentals of Modeling 1 & 2, CAD Drills - Parts, Modeling Productivity Tools, Basics of 2D Drawing, Fundamentals of 2D Drawing, Drawing CAD Drills, Sketching Productivity Tools, Creating and Modifying 2D Drawing Views, Managing the 2D Drawing Environment, Adding 2D Drawing Information Using Tables, Populating 2D Drawings with Annotations, Advanced Drawings CAD Drills, GD&T CAD Drills, Creating Sheetmetal Models 1 & 2, Sheetmetal CAD Drills, Weldments CAD Drills, Basics of Surface Modeling, Exam: Creo Fundamentals Certification.
