Alibre Partners with 3DCADTips.com to Promote 3D Design through Free Online Training Classes
Alibre Inc announced the launch of its CAD University program with 3DCADTips.com (www.3dcadtips.com) as the charter partner.
Committed to helping people realize the benefits of 3D CAD, Alibre is launching the CAD University program to show that parametric solid modeling is both easy to use and entirely accessible-even for people with a 2D background. Program partners, like 3DCADTips.com, gain a valuable free service for their content sites to help increase traffic and membership registrations.
The live online classes are delivered with Microsoft Live Meeting by an Alibre instructor and compare to training classes that would otherwise cost hundreds of dollars. Alibre Design is used to teach the classes, but there is no sales pitch-the goal is to teach not sell. Pre-recorded classes are also available for those who are not able to attend the scheduled live classes.
"Live, instructor-led training is truly the ultimate 'tip' making CAD University a perfect fit for 3DCADTips," said Don LaCourse, Editor and Founder of 3DCADTips.com. "It provides a unique, interactive forum to learn about parametric 3D solid modeling; participants can ask questions, or learn from those asked by others, and it's totally free."
Classes are held daily at 3:00 PM CT and include the following topics:
• Putting the Solid in Solid Modeling,
• 2D to 3D: Solid Modeling for AutoCAD users,
• Designing Sheet Metal Parts in 3D,
• Assembly Design: Pulling it All Together
• 2D Reloaded: Packaging Your Design for Manufacturing
Additional classes are available from Alibre for a fee. For more information on becoming a program partner, contact Alibre at 972-671-8492.
