Inventor – Intensive Course

During the Inventor intensive course, you will learn to understand and use Inventor. The content and design of the course are adapted to your prior knowledge and areas of use. You will learn drawing techniques, create design, drawings and compilations, all with a focus on the right methodology so that you can increase your productivity.

Cadcraft is part of Autodesk Learning Partner and has certified course leaders in Autodesk software. Find out more about Autodesk Learning Partner here!

Psst!
The course includes a one-year subscription of e-learning, which we deliver in collaboration with CAD-Learning. With e-learning, you get access to web-based training within Inventor, but also many of Autodesk’s other software such as AutoCAD, NavisWorks and Revit.

As a course participant, you get a playlist with reviews of the most basic functions in Inventor. We want you to go through the playlist before you come to us and educate yourself. The playlist takes about 10-12 hours to complete. Then we do not need to spend as much time on basics and which buttons you should press during the course. Instead, we focus more on methodology and Best Practice.

Target audience

The course is aimed at those who want to learn how to work in Inventor. The course is designed so that you, regardless of industry, background or area of ​​use, will be able to satisfy the course. The course is aimed at those with a good CAD habit who need a faster review of Inventor.

Objective with Inventor intensive course

After the course, you must have sufficient knowledge to get started and work independently with Inventor.

The goal after completing the course is that you should be able to:

Introduction

• First how Inventor works and handle modeling in 3D, at a basic level.

User interface

• Understand and customize the interface to your needs at a basic level.

Drawing technique

• Use the right methodology to create and modify models or drawings in an efficient way and understand the flow between individual models, compilations and drawings.

3D parties

• Create or edit 3D parts and individual models in Inventor.

Design drawings

• Design 2D drawings based on created models, both individual parts and assemblies.

Compilations

• Create or edit compilations and manage settings for these.

Manage BOM and display views

• Make correct settings for BOM in drawings and manage previews of the compilation content.

Exercises

The exercises are pedagogically designed so that you can practice design in Inventor. The focus is on the right methodology for you to learn to model from the beginning in the most efficient way possible combined with mass training so that you can effectively repeat basic functions in the program.

Previous knowledge

Basic knowledge of Windows and computer skills is a basic prerequisite in order to get out as much as possible from the course. Knowledge in other CAD programs is helpful, but not a requirement.
