SOLIDWORKS Tech Day: Sharpen Your Skills in a Single Power-Packed Day
Date: January 20
Time: 9:00 am - 3:30 pm
Location: Building 240 room 1416
Venue: Argonne National Laboratory – Building 240 room 1416
This Lunch & Learn brings together engineers, designers across ANL for a fast-paced, high-value training experience covering everything from 60 rapid-fire productivity tips to deeper dives into modeling, assemblies, DraftSight drawings, and more.
You’ll start the morning with breakfast and networking, then move through a series of focuses sessions led by GSC – your authorized SOLIDWORKS reseller. After lunch, choose your path with afternoon breakout sessions—whether you want a hands-on FEA test drive, a look at multiphysics simulation, a walkthrough of PDM best practices, or a crash course in SOLIDWORKS Composer.
If you’re looking to sharpen your skills, explore new tools, or level up your workflow, this event packs more learning into one day than most users get in a month.
