Inventor Software Training

  Friday, June 13 2008 @ 04:24 PM EDT

FREE Inventor Software Training June 21, 2008!!

All systems are go for some fundamental but extensive training on Inventor on June 21st.  We are going to go with two sessions, a morning session from 9 until 12:30 and an afternoon session from around 1:30 until 5.  Since Melissa is going to be here all day, the afternoon session could go even a little longer for those who have special interests.  We currently have only 20 seats available in the Loeffler Computing Lab in the Mott Center Bldg, and these will be allocated on a first come first serve basis.  This free training session is HANDS ON.  I know three plus hours is a long stretch, especially for young hyper active students so we could easily take a little break. We have a great break room (The Baron Lounge) on the second floor in the Mott Center Bldg and Kettering University will provide snacks and beverages for those who attend.

Please, please help me in getting the word out by contacting any teams you know of that might be interested.  For those who want to participate, just drop me an email at hkowalsk@kettering.edu and I promise to promptly reply.  If you dial Kettering direct at 762-9500 you may be able to reach me at extension 5002 when you enter it after the prompt during the week.

This is free training to you provided by Melissa Thomas, Autodesk World Wide Education, Mechanical Engineering Solutions Specialist and Kettering University.  We would love to have you join us!!
