Solidworks Refresher Training

The Clounagh Centre will be hosting 2 afternoon sessions for Solidworks refresher training on Monday the 1st and 15th of December. This course is best suited for those who have yet to develop Solidworks within their technology environment, as most of the course will focus on simple drawing tasks best suited for KS3/4. The course will begin at 1pm and finish at 3.30 on both days. It is important to note that attendance on both days is essential. If you would like to reserve a place please contact Patricia.curran@selb.org.
