Changes are possible. The course content is updated regularly.

After the course, you will be able to use the versatile CAD application SOLIDWORKS at a professional level and have practical and comprehensive knowledge. You will be able to create parametric 3D models of individual parts and assemblies with the corresponding drawings.

You will also be familiar with the main SAP applications in production planning and round off your professional profile with SAP user certification.

The course is aimed at people with a degree in engineering and experience in the field of design, product designers, technicians, technical draughtsmen from the fields of mechanical or electrical engineering and specialists from other sectors with relevant professional experience.

SOLIDWORKS, as one of the most common CAD programs, is used in almost all industries and opens up job opportunities both in engineering offices and in the development departments of companies of all sizes. With the original SOLIDWORKS certification, you provide detailed insight into your acquired qualifications and improve your career entry and advancement.

In addition, you will acquire the globally standardized and recognized SAP user certificate for production planning (PP). It is considered one of the most important manufacturer certifications in the commercial sector, with which you can improve your career prospects on the job market across all industries.

Training partner of SAP® Germany

In cooperation with the SAP training partner alfatraining Bildungszentrum GmbH, we will qualify you for a job in industry and business.

You are directly connected to the SAP® Germany servers and learn on the original SAP® training system (IDES) in the latest version. This gives you the necessary practical experience during the course.

Didactic concept

Your lecturers are highly qualified both professionally and didactically and will teach you from the first to the last day (no self-study system).

You will learn in effective small groups. The courses usually consist of 6 to 25 participants. The general lessons are supplemented by numerous practical exercises in all course modules. The practice phase is an important part of the course, as it is during this time that you process what you have just learned and gain confidence and routine in its application. The final section of the course involves a project, a case study or a final exam.
