As a Certified SOLIDWORKS Professional (CSWP), you will stand out from the crowd in today's competitive job market. The CSWP certification is proof of your SOLIDWORKS expertise—cutting-edge skills that businesses seek out and reward. The Certified SOLIDWORKS Professional Prep Course will prepare you to take the exam, and master the techniques necessary to design and analyze parametric parts and moveable assemblies using a variety of complex features in SOLIDWORKS. Instructor Gabriel Corbett provides an overview of the CSWP requirements, and reviews the 30+ skills you will be tested on during the exam. These include equations and linked variables, convert and offset entities, calculating the center of mass, assigning materials and units, configurations, design tables, assembly techniques, and replacing components.
He also breaks down the three segments of the test (part modeling, configurations, and assemblies), providing strategies that will help you pass each section. At the end of the course, there are two sample exams to practice what you've learned.
