About the Course
This accelerated course was developed to meet your advanced GD&T needs by building on your existing fundamental skills. You’ll learn about advanced GD&T concepts like composite tolerancing, tolerance analysis, datum selection, non-rigid part dimensioning, and many more key dimensioning topics. The course covers a variety of topics from advanced GD&T concepts to the system approach for part dimensioning.

Who Should Attend
This workshop is a valuable tool for individuals who create or interpret engineering drawings: product and gage designers; process, product, and manufacturing engineers; supplier quality engineers; CMM operators; buyers/purchasers; checkers; inspectors; technicians; and sales engineers.

Workshop Highlights
View sample agenda
The workshop is based on a series of goals and objectives. It includes numerous practice problems and in-depth coverage of GD&T advanced concepts. You will learn to solve real-world problems; understand datum selection, how to reduce product costs, profile tolerancing, form controls, positional tolerancing, and part calculations. CEUs will be awarded for successful completion of the course.

Skill Level Needed
Please be aware that this is not an introductory course. In order to understand the course content, you should have:
1. Completed 16 hours of formalized classroom training in GD&T
