Introduction to CAD Skill Set - CAIRNS

Training runs for 3 weeks, 3 nights per week on non-consecutive weeks. Refunds up to 7 days before event Eventbrite's fee is non-refundable.

The Cairns Manufacturing Hub is once again collaborating with TAFE Cairns to deliver this heavily subsidised training to manufacturers across the Far North Region.

By providing CAD training to staff can significantly benefit the company by boosting productivity, improving design accuracy, facilitating collaboration, reducing time spent on revisions, enabling faster project turnaround, enhancing competitiveness in the market, and ultimately increasing overall profitability by allowing for more efficient and effective product development processes; essentially, upskilling staff with CAD knowledge fills skill gaps and allows for a more adaptable workforce to handle complex design challenges.
