New Trends in Sales and Marketing Presentations

Course ID#: VATP1001

Course description:

Course examines the newest trends in area of creating dynamic sales and marketing materials for the manufacturing industry. New methods now allow non-engineering users to easily interface directly with your company's existing engineering CAD models to create interactive web material as well as exciting animations and graphics for your presentations. Learn to repurpose engineering files without recreating them to render, modify, animate and change images to meet your specific needs. If you've ever wished you could utilize your company's engineering files directly without having to bug an engineer or even open a seat of CAD to do it, this class is for you! If you're an engineer tasked with creating material for sales and marketing, we'll show you do it faster and easier so you can get back to what you like to do best...engineering! Hands on lab work will utilize the latest 3D documentation software technology, 3DVIA Composer.
