About the Course

This course is a practical and straightforward introduction to Geometric Dimensional & Tolerancing (GD&T) and conforms to the Standard ASME Y14.5M-2018. 

The objective of the course is to provide students with a practical understanding of fundamental GD&T, which can immediately be applied to their current work environment. The expert-led training goes over the history of GD&T and will provide an in-depth study of geometric characteristics and tolerance zones in an easy-to-understand format. The class is lecture-based, but also provides time for student questions and classroom discussions. Students are encouraged to bring their own drawings to bring real-world examples for the class to review and learn from. 

Attendees should have a basic knowledge of how to read blueprints and engineering drawings prior to taking this course. 

Attendees who successfully finish this course will obtain a certificate of completion from the NIAR/AMP, Dimensional Metrology Training Center. A workbook is included in the cost of training and is yours to keep.
