Overview of Geometric Tolerancing
Engineering drawings (aka “prints”) are critical documents used to communicate between design, manufacturing and quality. Not being able to properly read a drawing can easily lead to costly consequences. This foundational course provides education for creating and interpreting engineering drawings.
These skills are essential for anyone involved in design, manufacturing or quality. If you have any interaction with engineering drawings, this course is for you!
This self-paced, online course contains detailed information alongside graphical illustrations and animations to help the concepts sink in. Multiple quizzes throughout the course also help to ensure the information is being understood. This training course is based on the ASME Y14 drawing standards (such as ASME Y14.100 and Y14.5).
Course includes a certificate of completion which is issued after fully completing all lessons and quizzes.

2018 UPDATE TRAINING COURSE
FREE PREVIEW
Staying current with the latest updates to the Y14.5 GD&T standard is critical to maintain the primary purpose of GD&T - engineering drawings that represent functional intent and have one interpretation.
This DatumX online (on-demand) training course provide in-depth training on all the changes to the Y14.5 GD&T standard in the 2018 revision. The course is intended for those who have a working knowledge of Y14.5 based on previous revisions (1994, 2009). The course is very detailed and includes many illustrations and animations to help simplify concepts.
​
Who would benefit from taking this course? Designers and drafters, manufacturing and quality personnel who were trained to a previous revision of Y14.5.
This DatumX course covers many different aspect of GD&T and therefore is also a great refresher course for those that haven’t had formal training in a while.
