If you are new to SOLIDWORKS, you might be wondering where to begin. ASOLIDWORKS is intuitive and flexible. It's easy enough just to get stuck in and create your first models. However, typically if you do, you'll develop some bad habits which can waste a lot of time in the long run, particularly when it comes to making changes to your models. When you're creating more complex designs and want to get the best start form SOLIDWORKS, we recommend watching the short videos on our learn SOLIDWORKS pages, utilizing the inbuilt SOLIDWORKS tutorials, and then attending our SOLIDWORKS essentials training course, which, along with the majority of our other courses, is accredited. Following this, we have several recommended training paths depending on your planned usage and industry. We are also happy to discuss the best options for you and your business. If you are interested in attending multiple courses, then our training passport bundles provide amazing value, offering you a comprehensive training and development plan in a single purchase. Included in your success package is the live SOLIDWORKS Basic Session, a half day event allowing you to experience our virtual training first hand with no commitment.
