RAND A Technology Corporation operating as RAND Worldwide, announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, ASCENT - Center for Technical Knowledge®, launched its third Inventor R10 courseware title, Inventor Advanced Modeling.

The Inventor Advanced Modeling course builds on the skills acquired in ASCENT's first two titles, Inventor Introduction to Solid Modeling and Inventor Intermediate Modeling courses. It takes Inventor users to a higher level of productivity.

In addition to addressing how to effectively present and manage Inventor models and assemblies, the class covers a broad range of surface modeling techniques. The surfacing techniques covered include all of the surfacing creation tools as well as how to import surfaces from another format. Students also learn Inventor's presentation and reporting tools, including advanced presentation file tools, assembly bill of materials, hole tables and Inventor Studio. The analysis of a model and the management of styles are presented through the use of measurement, analysis and style management tools.

"Inventor Advanced Modeling leverages our years of experience in parametric solid modeling systems to bring users to an even higher level of software knowledge," said Joe Oswald, Executive Vice President, RAND Worldwide. "It furthers ASCENT's commitment to enabling mechanical designers and engineers to reduce their design time and bring better products to market faster and more cost effectively."
