Intro to SolidWorks Course Online (Available Oct 2025)
Learn SolidWorks from the ground up as you model parts, assemble a complete playground, create exploded views, and produce 2D blueprints.
Learn SolidWorks from the ground up as you model parts, assemble a complete playground, create exploded views, and produce 2D blueprints.
Learn the essentials of SolidWorks by diving straight into a hands-on project. Begin by exploring the interface and core toolsets, then move on to sketching and 3D modeling to create fully editable parts that reflect solid design intent.
As skills develop, parts come together in assemblies, applying mates and relationships to form a complete design. Visual communication tools like exploded views are introduced, and the project wraps with converting the 3D models into professional 2D drawings and blueprints. By the end, you'll have the confidence to move from concept to engineered design, ready to build in the real world.

Refined over many years for an optimal learning experience
This training will definitely help my career. I was able to show my supervisor and co-workers what the software programs have to offer and what I'm capable of when the time comes for creating that construction design team in the future. I was able to provide documentation to my employer that the money spent was well worth it. The training I received at VDCI will become an asset moving forward.
