NC CAD
CAD geometry prepared specifically for numerical control machining.
Drawing for the machine rather than for the page. You prepare and repair geometry, set datums and hand off models a CAM programmer can use without rework.

Introduction video coming soonWatch Course Introduction
How the NC CAD track is run, module by module.
A short walkthrough of the syllabus, the projects you will build and how the batches are run — worth five minutes before you enrol.
Who can do this course?
The programme is built to work for people arriving from very different starting points.
Beginners
No prior experience needed — the first modules start from fundamentals.
College students
Fits alongside a degree, with weekend and evening batches covering the same syllabus.
Freshers
Build the portfolio and interview practice that a first role actually asks for.
Working professionals
Weekend batches and 1-on-1 mentoring for people training without taking leave.
Freelancers
Skills you can bill for, plus the delivery habits clients expect.
Why choose this program?
Six things that separate a programme you finish from one you benefit from.
- 01
Industry-oriented curriculum
Built backwards from live job descriptions and rewritten as the stack moves.
- 02
Hands-on from day one
You spend more time building than watching. Every concept lands in working code.
- 03
Mentor guidance
Small batches, direct access to your trainer, and reviews on the work you produce.
- 04
Real-world tools
The same editors, version control and deployment tooling teams use in production.
- 05
Interview preparation
Mock rounds, portfolio review and the questions this particular role gets asked.
- 06
Career-focused outcome
The programme ends with work you can show and a plan for the roles you are targeting.
Course modules
3 modules, 24 sessions — sequenced so each one builds on what you just shipped.

What you will learn
Concrete capabilities, not topics covered. Each one is demonstrated in work you keep.
- Set coordinate systems and datums correctly
- Repair and simplify models for machining
- Apply tolerances a machinist can hold
- Export in the formats CAM expects
- Produce a clean setup handoff
Tools & technologies you'll learn
The same tooling the teams hiring for this role use every day.
- AutoCAD
- SolidWorks
- STEP / IGES
- Setup sheets
- GD&T

Why learn with us?
Every trainer here still ships production code. That is the whole basis of the teaching: answers come from current practice rather than from a slide deck written three years ago.
Practitioners, not presenters
Sessions are run by engineers working on live systems, so the examples come from real codebases.
Project-based from week one
You build as you learn. Each module ends in something that runs, not in a quiz.
Personalised guidance
Small batches mean your mentor knows what you are stuck on and what you are aiming at.
Doubt support that continues
Doubt sessions and mentor hours carry on after the certificate is printed.
Frequently asked questions
The questions counsellors are asked most about NC CAD.
Yes. NC CAD starts from the interface and the fundamentals, so no prior software experience is assumed.
