Digital Design & Costing Career Pathway

Acquire all the skills offered during Digital design training at CCAT's Digital Thread Lab. On route to this credential you will complete Design training focused on CAD for MBD, CAD quality and validation, digital costing, and product lifecycle management. Program Outcomes: 1. Develop an awareness of the digital thread (DT), model-based engineering (MBE) and model-based definition (MBD). 2. Become familiar with technical data packages (TDP), the common file types, and the role, use and definition of derivative files.3. View and organize product and manufacturing information (PMI) on a 3D model.4. Apply dimensions, notes and geomtric dimensioning and tolerancing schemes to models. 5. Identify quality defects in a 3D CAD model that would negatively impact downstream model reuse.6.Generate, view and interpret CAD quality tests using advanced software viewers.7. Generate estimates of part manufacturing costs automatically with model-based definition in CAD software.8. Use PLM collaboration tools to share files and manage MBD data, Technical Data Packages, 3D Work Instructions.
