Basic Trainings
Design Software
Equip yourself with the skills to design and prototype for own creations by mastering 3D CAD for digital modeling and Adobe Illustrator for vector graphics.
These software trainings are optional but recommended.
They will lay the groundwork for designing your own products and successful tool use in the Foundry.
3D Design - CAD
Learn the fundamentals of Autodesk Fusion to create digital models of your prototypes, preparing you for creating your own physical prototypes with our 3D printers or laser cutters.
