Whereas our specialized courses are offered through out the year at our
Chicago office, Design Engine Education instructors are also flexible
to accommodate your group or company by teaching classes onsite at your
facility. Our instructors are not just taught how to teach specific software;
they are high level users and don't get stuck when specific questions
are asked during class that may veer from the structured training (like
many of our competitors). We have heard stories from costumers about other
training they received onsite and the instructor could not veer from the
course material.
Our onsite training efforts are reflected successfully at Schick, Fisher-Price,
Yamaha, Motorola, Knoll, John Deere, General Atomics, M3 Design, IDEO,
British Aerospace, Valley Lab, Triumph, and Cannondale onsite training
efforts. Call 312.226.8339 today to speak to one of our recognized instructors
or inquire for past manufactures references. Inside US and overseas our
instructors each carry valid passports for training abroad.
There are pros and cons to onsite training with many obvious examples
such as cost savings with respect to many vs one traveling and accommodations.
It is costmary to ask for two estimates from our sales department to evaluate
the strengths. Sometimes our costumers will fly instructors to their city
for training yet still conduct the training at an offsite facility such
as a hotel conference room.
Customized Onsite Proe Training, Maya Training, Rhino
Training:
Our onsite training workshops are often customized for specific product
design or engineering functions. For example, one major seating manufacture
gave Design Engine Pro/ENGINEER models from a past project and asked us
to create custom documentation in HTML sharing high level surfacing technique
beyond menu clicks. Our competitors often teach from a click by click book
or manual.
With the disclosures signed our engineering team can then evaluate how the
models have been put together enabling the instructor to better accommodate
the training workshop.
Custom Documentation in HTML:
Specific Pro/ENGINEE training requirements for onsite efforts are often
coordinated several weeks before training is to commence. And often are
meant are made to customize the training by documenting current modeling
practices for example This interrogation effort allow the instructor or
instructors a full picture of the skill levels and a complete picture for
a design process that is currently in place. In this custom document the
instructors have time to apply techniques that will be gained fro the course
and apply those techniques to the various modeling examples supplied. We
usually recommend a 20 to 30 hour addition to the proposal depending upon
how many models are supplied for interrogation. The value of this added
cost goes for future training efforts as these documents can be added to
the corporate intranet. These documents are usually secretive and as such
it is difficult for us to share examples of the custom documentation we
develop however a progressive deliverable for the advancement modeling practices
and techniques of a development team.
All it takes is a phone call 312.226.8339 or fill out the form below.

inquiries and a DE rep will contact you back to schedule a phone conference.
