+The Pillars of Design-Engine
Education
Our Commitment to the product development community
+Non-intimidating environment
Design-engine education ensures a comfortable environment, which is optimal
for the learning experience. Our headquarters is a downtown Chicago loft
which overlooks the Chicago skyline in the trendy Greektown area of Chicago.
+Individual Attention
Each course has limited available seats. This allows the course to work
at the student's pace and a truly beneficial interaction between student
and instructor.
+Adaptability:
Due to such small class sizes, each student can work at his or her own
pace without feeling like they are ahead or behind. Instructors help their
students through more difficult areas and further challenge those who
excel. Our instructors can also administer training in older versions
of software.
+Renowned Instructors:
The instructors who teach at DESIGN ENGINE|EDUCATION
are renowned for their industry expertise and professionalism. They are
working designers and engineers and actually use the software they teach
professionally unlike many typical certified courses administered by software
manufacturers. Our instructors also have an encyclopedic knowledge of
the software and can relate it's use in real world examples on the fly
in the class. For example in a class to Yamaha, one of the participants
in the class asked the instructor about point cloud data and modeling
motorcycle seats. During the 45 minute lunch brake the instructor modeled
the motorcycle seat around the point cloud data utilizing the modeling
techniques recently presented in the class.
+Courses design for the design world:
These courses have been meticulously scrutinized, developed and matured
by industry leaders and employers who keep us abreast of what skills are
needed in the workplace. These are the skills and techniques we focus
on to help our students excel in industry.
+Techniques for training:
DESIGN ENGINE|EDUCATION is a training organization
that specializes in the training Mechanical Engineers and Industrial Designers.
Our innovative Pro/E training style is widely praised for not only teaching
the software but also for fostering a mind set that incorporates all elements
of design and engineering to enhance student capabilities. Our goal is
to empower participants with the knowledge and experience to utilize the
design tools needed to get projects completed accurately and with efficiency.
Unlike many other training organizations, we begin with a complete model
and work backwards through the model. Also, we are an independent company
and as such are not beholden to any software manufacturer, which means
that we teach many techniques and shortcuts that aren't found in the step-by-step
or book read curriculum of a more traditional training organizations.
Because of our desire to teach design as a part of training and our use
compelling models in our course materiel we capture the participants attention
and keep the attention thru out the course,
DESIGN ENGINE|EDUCATION has learned that much more material can
be covered if the focus is on solving problems which keeps the participants
minds focused on an end goal. Take a look at what some of our past students
say about our training in the testimonials
part of the website.
