This course is designed to give all of the knowledge required for an experienced user of another CAD system to migrate their experience over to the NX design software. The NX Design for the Experienced CAD user course ignites the student through professional instruction pertaining to product model design, product model detailing, assembly modeling, and the creation of detail drawings of the solid model or assembly.

At the completion of this course the student will be able to develop solid models, detail drawings, and product assemblies. The class introduces assembly modeling in the context of a real-life scenario that includes parts modeled by the student as well as pre-prepared models. As with each course developed and taught by Majenta PLM professionals, the NX Design for the Experienced CAD user class capitalizes on our Siemens PLM Software’s intimate knowledge of the software's development and instructs the students based on the underlying principles incorporated within the NX software.

The NX Design for the Experienced CAD user class was designed to increase the productivity of the student, teaching the skills necessary for students to accomplish the following:

• Apply the standards used in class
