Overview:
GD&T Fundamentals teaches a simple framework that allows users to not only understand how Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing is utilized, but also why GD&T improves the manufacturing process. The course is focused on practical knowledge and uses real-world examples from users as instructional tools. GD&T Fundamentals doesn’t overwhelm users with every GD&T concept – the lessons are curated to teach users only the concepts and terminology necessary to do their jobs better and improve the user’s manufacturing operation.
Upon successful completion of the course, a user will be able to:
· Gain a mental framework and understanding that simplifies 95% of all GD&T
