Digital Design Pathway (without Awareness)

Sign up for this Digital Design pathway if you have already taken the Awareness level training. 

CCAT's Digital Design training pathway (without Awareness) includes the following courses over three days:

• Wednesday:
• Introduction to CAD using MBD
• Intermediate CAD using MBD
• Thursday:
• CAD Quality and Validation Practices
• Interpreting CAD Quality and Validation
• Friday:
• Digital Costing for MBD
• Product Lifecycle Management for MBD

• Understand the fundamentals of Model-Based Definition (MBD) and its role in enabling the digital thread.
• Create and manage Product Manufacturing Information (PMI) within 3D CAD models to establish a single source of truth for design intent.
• Validate MBD-driven models to ensure accuracy, compliance, and readiness for downstream consumption across design, quality, and production.
• Leverage digital design and manufacturing data to develop accurate, model-driven cost analyses throughout the product lifecycle.
• Collaborate more effectively with cross-functional teams by delivering standardized, consistent, and interoperable 3D data packages.
• Recognize the impact of MBD adoption on reducing errors, improving efficiency, and accelerating time-to-production within the digital manufacturing ecosystem.

The Digital Design Week training is ideal for design engineers, CAD specialists, product developers, and manufacturing professionals who want to enhance their skills in Model-Based Definition (MBD) and model-centric design practices. It is designed for those responsible for creating, managing, and sharing 3D product data across the organization and supply chain.

Students signing up for Digital Design Week (without awareness) should have already taken the Tuesday Awareness Training: 

• Tuesday - Awareness:
• Digital Thread Concepts and Value Proposition
• Next Gen TDPs and MBD Workflows
