Counselling & demo class
A part drawing or a CNC program is judged on whether a workshop can make the part from it. Every exercise here is checked the same way, so you learn the drawing standard and the manufacturing reason along with the software.
Practice on shafts, brackets, housings and assemblies of the kind made in Punjab's workshops and factories.
Your trainer reviews each drawing, model and program the way a design or production senior would.
Dimensioning, tolerances and fits taught alongside the commands, not as a separate theory class.
Finished drawings, models and programs you can show an employer.
The course is built for learners arriving from different starting points.
B.Tech, diploma and ITI students who need the design software their trade uses.
Build the portfolio and interview practice that a first role actually asks for.
Enough hands-on depth to build, brief or evaluate the work yourself.
Weekend batches and 1-on-1 mentoring for people training without taking leave.
Skills you can bill for, plus the delivery habits clients expect.
Eligibility
Not sure whether your background fits? Counselling is free — tell us your background and goal and we will suggest the right batch, with no obligation.
The stack you work with in class and in the live projects.
Finishing Product Design puts three separate documents in your file — each one for a different part of what you did.
Awarded when you complete the Product Design programme. Where the track has a recognised vendor exam, we prepare you for that as well.
For the live project you build during Product Design, naming the work and the tools you used — so the project on your CV is backed by paper, not just claimed.
Take your training as a university internship and you finish with an internship letter covering your weeks on a project team.
See internship trainingIllustration — ask to see a real certificate at the centre.
How the paper is used
The roles Product Design prepares you for, and the kinds of employers who use these skills. Outcomes depend on your own work and the market — we prepare you for interviews, we do not promise a job or a number.
Placement support comes with every course — portfolio review, mock interviews and guidance on where to apply.
Talk about placementsMost Product Design courses cover a similar syllabus. What separates them is what you build while you are there, and what happens after the last session.
At techcadd: Every module ends in built work, and the course finishes with a portfolio project that goes through review.
At most places: Varies — worth asking whether you finish with work you can show.
At techcadd: A completion certificate when you finish the course.
At most places: Varies from course to course.
At techcadd: Included with the course: portfolio review, mock interviews and preparation for the roles you are targeting.
At most places: Worth checking what is included and what is extra.
At techcadd: Free career counselling and a free demo class, with no registration fee.
At most places: Not always offered before enrolment.
At techcadd: At our Model Town centre in Hoshiarpur or live online — the same material, and you can switch if your schedule changes.
At most places: Often one format only.
At techcadd: Small batches in morning, evening and weekend slots, with direct access to your trainer.
At most places: Timings and batch sizes differ.
Compare us on the same points before you enrol anywhere — sit a demo class and ask to see the project work students finish with.
Still unsure? A ten-minute call with a counsellor usually settles it faster than any brochure.

What the call covers
Counselling and the demo class are both free.
It is a mechanical product design course at our Model Town centre that follows one product from brief and concept sketch to 3D model, manufacturable design, drawings and a prototype-ready file.
Mechanical engineering students and freshers, working design staff, and owners of small manufacturing units who want to develop products in-house.
You should already model parts in a 3D CAD tool, or take SolidWorks or Creo first. Comfort with engineering drawings is assumed.
It is the engineering side — modelling, manufacturability, materials, tolerances and drawings — with enough concept sketching and form work to make sensible design decisions. It is not a styling or art course.
You prepare and check a 3D-print-ready file for your design. Whether a part is printed depends on what is available for your batch, so ask at counselling.
3 Months, across 4 modules and about 48 sessions. Weekday and weekend batches cover the same syllabus, so choose the timing that suits you.
Classes run at the techcadd centre in Model Town, Hoshiarpur (Inside City Center, near Bus Stand, Model Town, Hoshiarpur, Punjab 146001), and live online. Both cover the same material, so you can switch if your schedule changes.
Yes. You receive a techcadd Hoshiarpur certificate for Product Design after completing the course and its final assessment.
Yes. Counselling and the demo class are free — visit the Model Town centre or book one online, see how the class is run, and then decide.
Send your question and a counsellor will call you back — batch timings, fees, placement support, certification. No obligation to enrol.
We use your number only to answer this enquiry.
