Teach your own SWorks course?
Teach your own SWorks course?
(OP)
Has anyone on this board ever looked into teaching a SolidWorks course at a local community college?
Do you need permission from SolidWorks to even do it?

Good luck
RE: Teach your own SWorks course?
One thing you may want to consider is the surrounding curriculum taught at the school, since in lots of ways the nature of your SW teaching will need to blend in with that stuff. For instance, in this case, I would emphasize machine design, good assembly practices, sourcing parts from the Internet from various vendors to include them in designs, etc.--because they have a strong contingent of students in machine design (as opposed to my primary focus of industrial design). So you may end up needing to brush up on areas outside your immediate niche to help the students get the most out of the course (I think SW is far too broad and deep to cover in a semester, so aim well).
