Extending a hand to waves of displaced designers and engineers, Dassault Systèmes SolidWorks Corp. (DS SolidWorks) has activated a program to give these potential employees a chance to learn new career skills in 3D computer-aided design.
Called the SolidWorks Engineering Stimulus Package, the program gives free SolidWorks 3D CAD software licenses, training videos and tutorials, networking, certification, and potential job leads to any job seeker living in the United States or Canada.
The package includes:
- Software: a 90-day license of the SolidWorks Student Design Kit software for non-commercial use, with tutorials and documentation, plus the SolidWorks eDrawings email-enabled file sharing tool.
- Training: Hands-on test drives and other training from participating SolidWorks value-added resellers (VARs) throughout the United States and Canada.
- Networking: Access to the SolidWorks Customer Portal for support, networking, and discussion.
- Certification: Free testing to become a Certified SolidWorks Associate (CSWA), a credential that documents SolidWorks competence and distinguishes job candidates for selective employers.
DS SolidWorks will also expand this program to other geographical regions in coming months.
