CEGS will organize and hold the "National 3D Modeling" training and certification program in Xiamen, Jinan, Shenzhen and Xian City.
Hundreds of teachers from universities and professional colleges will attend this training and then become qualified trainers by passing the certification test.
This program illustrates UGS' commitment to invest and cultivate academic 3D modeling in China.
"China manufacturers have realized that evolving to a highly flexible and robust 3D digital product development system is essential to remaining competitive," said Mr Jia Huanming, General Secretary, CEGS.
"CEGS, with high prestige in China Engineering Graphics field, has taken on the responsibility to help 2D users smoothly move to 3D by launching the "National 3D Modeling" training and certification program.
We chose Solid Edge as the standard system because of its easy Evolve to 3D program, powerful 3D modeling and many other advanced functions.
In addition, our selection was based on UGS' support services and worldwide leadership in PLM field, which gave us great confidence that together we can provide advanced 3D technology and outstanding modeling tools for design engineers.
" UGS and CEGS expect the program to drive the application of Digital Product Design in Chinese manufacturers by extending the 3D modeling skills in the university, professional colleges and manufacturing enterprises.
