Overview

In the 3Design CAD for Jewellery course, you'll acquire the skills to create and visualise 3D jewellery designs using the 3Design software package. This course will build your confidence in modelling designs that can be translated into reality through methods like 3D printing and jewellery casting. Designed for beginners, this course is particularly beneficial to both newcomers venturing into the realm of CAD design and experienced CAD designers seeking to broaden their skill set.

The course will be conducted through engaging online recorded sessions, fostering a dynamic dialogue between students and the instructor. This approach ensures a customized learning experience in which you'll benefit from personalised support and feedback instilling confidence in using the software. Throughout the course you will have access to all course materials and self-directed study tasks via our online learning platform ‘Canvas’. 

By the end of the course, you'll be proficient in modelling designs in the software and gain an understanding of the potential of 3Design's robust and adaptable Parametric History Tree, allowing you to efficiently modify designs and make adaptations to models.  Furthermore, you'll gain the skills needed to apply your knowledge of jewellery-making tolerances to produce objects suitable for manufacturing.
