Strengthen Your Program with Mastercam Instructor Training
Our Summer Teacher Training program is designed with you, the instructor in mind. Not only will we teach you to use Mastercam—you’ll learn how to teach your students to use Mastercam effectively. Collaborative, hands-on training lets you experience the projects in much the same way your students would. In addition, classes are kept small so we can focus on the needs of the group.

This class adds a level of complexity over the basic project class. Class time will be divided between the classroom and the lab to produce the projects designed in class. Mastercam Mill and Mastercam Art will be used to work through the design process, CNC setup and CNC machining to familiarize yourself with potential problems that might be encountered in your classrooms.
Prerequisites: Instructor permission or completion of either Mastercam Fundamentals or Basic Projects. On the first day, Intermediate Projects will quickly review the basics of part design as well as pocket and contour toolpaths. If you are not yet comfortable with those concepts, the Fundamentals or Basic Projects classes will likely better suit your needs.
