This Four-Week Comprehensive course is our most popular. Some mix and match their four week workshop with a combination of  Creo, Solidworks and Alias or Rhino. We receive quite a few designers who studied Rhino in ID school and take Alias at Design Engine in order to take their skills to the next level. The great part of our four week program is that you set the pace as we steadily apply new or advanced tips and techniques that equip you for a future job. Plus, we assist with that portfolio building.

Why Our “Hands On” Instruction Is Unique: Our courses are incredibly different from the rest. Class size and style set the stage for the advantages. Each class is purposely kept small – typically never larger than five pupils – so that the instructors have full capacity to focus on the students. In fact, the average class size is just two or three designers. Each and every class is independently customized for the students, depending on their beginning strengths and weaknesses, as well as their chosen career direction. While everyone will get the same basic instruction on each module and each technique, the focus can and will differ between students and student’s wishes. Design Engine does not sell or represent the software, as many other VAR oriented training facilities do. This fully opens the arena for discussion on any bugs, software limitations, common problems, and the appropriate tricks and solutions to combat these issues and thus have a competitive edge on the job.

Training Mission: The training facility was built on the premise that the core to happiness is continuous learning. Our staff works very hard to do everything possible to prepare participants for their next career move, or for better functionality when they return to their existing jobs. Cross training between students is highly encouraged. Sometimes different students will purposely be given different material to challenge them so that they each take turns offering what they learned to the group. There is no better way to learn something inside and out than to teach it to someone else!
