CAD Quality Assurance and Productivity Improvement & New CAD Methodologies

Overview:

Introduction:

This program provides the CAD Operator and Engineer the essential understanding and tools for Quality Assurance, Productivity Improvement, and use of Tools. The program covers Work Methodologies, Tools, Accessories, and Customizations. The content of this program is not CAD software specific and applies for CAD Operators using AutoCAD, Microstation or other Software.
Standardization, Accuracy-First-Time… Tools and Procedures
For Operators, Checkers, Engineers, Supervisors
CAD usage is taught everywhere. Draftsmen and Engineers have been making Good Drawings. So where is the problem?
CAD drafting errors made need a lot of time to detect, correct, or redo- many of these errors are avoidable. Further productivity, accuracy, standardization strategic considerations are not taught anywhere else... except in this program!

Course Objectives:

At the end of this course the participants will be able to:

• Relevant Knowhow and Technology Transfer to the Participants.
• Multi-discipline understanding, skills, competencies, and step-by-step analytic understanding of the program topics and issues (this understanding would otherwise have come from years of rich and diverse work experience).
• Catch and learn from his own past/present/future job-related experience.
• Identify, support, and implements improvements in his work area, team, section, department, or organization.

Targeted Audience:

For Operators, Checkers, Engineers, Supervisors. CAD usage is taught everywhere but Draftsmen and Engineers often have little understanding of Quality Assurance Methods available to productively produce Good Drawings.
