Testimonials

"Ethan was a thorough and patient instructor, ran us through the whole SoildCAM process fully so we clearly understood both the theoretical principles and the practical implementation of the software."

"Paul was excellent very knowledgeable on the software as well as machining as whole. Quick to deal with issues we were having an went above an beyond the scope of the course helping people with problems in there own workplaces. While he followed the course in the book he did it in such away where it didn't feel like we where turning the page to see what to do next. All in all a very good teacher who id love to teach future courses."

"Unbelievable knowledge of SolidCAM, SOLIDWORKS and beyond. If I didn't understand something, Stephen was happy to stop and take the time to go back over the topic until I was happy, we would then move on. All topics were explained really well. I thoroughly enjoyed the course thanks to Stephen."
