Autodesk Inventor® 2011 Training Course
Discover the program structure and essential features of Autodesk Inventor with this Autodesk Inventor 2011 training DVD covering 312 individual topics and over 22 hours of instructor-led training. Your instructor, Allen Gager, is a highly capable Design Engineer who is proficient with large assembly models. He has over eighteen years of design experience and has had successes in streamlining design cycles and helping others effectively utilize the latest version of Autodesk Inventor Professional software.
As a flexible CAD training solution, you can sort the lessons and progress from beginner to advanced topics; or just review seldom used commands and added functionality of new releases.
TESTIMONIAL:
"This tutorial is awesome! I've been trying to learn ADT on my own, and with some incorrect advice from others trying to learn on their own. My frustration has completely subsided and I have started a new project with confidence and ease. It took me about a day and a half to get through the 'beginner' portion of the DVD and now I'm actually building an intelligent set of dwgs. With the DVD, if I forget how to do a command, I simply click on that lesson again and then I can move-on. I give it an A+."
