GD&T Fundamentals & Advanced Training

2-Day GD&T Fundamentals Training

Learn the Simplified Framework Behind the Tolerances on your Prints.

With the GD&T Fundamentals Public Training Course, you will learn a simple framework that will allow you to understand how GD&T is used and why GD&T improves the manufacturing process. This course focuses on practical knowledge and uses real-world drawing examples throughout the class to practice what is learned.

We don’t throw every concept at you – we focus on the concepts and terminology necessary to do your job better and improve your manufacturing operation.

Course Objectives:

  • Learn best practices that represent how GD&T is used in real-world design and production.
  • Simplify the main requirements and terminology of the ASME Yl4.5 Standard into plain English.
  • Break down the majority of all concepts in the GD&T Standards into one simple unified GD&T Basics Framework.
  • Learn all 14 major symbols & how to use them, which ones are most useful & which ones to avoid.
  • Understand what datums do & how they are applied on drawings for design, manufacturing, & inspection.
  • Discover how Max Material Condition creates bonus tolerance while maintaining a functional part.
  • Reinforce all concepts by showing them on realistic manufacturing-ready engineering prints.
  • Clarify all your GD&T questions, concerns, and coworker debates with our expert ASME certified instructor.
  • Retain key concepts using our included resources so you will be able to apply what you learn after training.

What’s Included in the Training:

  • 2 Days of training hosted by Certified ASME Senior-Level Instructor
  • Certificate of Completion
  • Review Reference Packet
  • Real-world Industry Drawing Examples
  • 1-Year Access to Online Platform:
    • GD&T Fundamentals Online Course
    • Real-Industry Example Webinars and Bonus Material
    • Detailed Reference Charts:
    • GD&T Premium Symbols Chart
    • Drill Tap Chart
    • ASME vs ISO Comparison Chart
    • ASME Yl4.5 2009 vs 2078 Standard Comparison Chart
  • 1-Year Access to our Instructor Question Line

Who Should Attend:

Our training is designed to be very approachable and geared towards everyone from entry level to those with intermediate experience. To take this training, you should have some experience in a design, production or inspection environment working with engineering drawings. You should also be able to understand how parts are represented and viewed on a print. No prior GD&T knowledge is required though.

2-Day Advanced GD&T Public Training

Learn advanced techniques to save costs, open up tolerances and understand GD&T best practices for design, production and inspection.

Our GD&T Advanced course builds upon the core framework established in the GD&T Fundamentals course. Because Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing standards cover every manufacturing application across every industry, the GD&T Advanced course gives students a more comprehensive understanding of GD&T standards and their application. This course fleshes out our Fundamentals framework to show students how every GD&T Symbol and Callout are used.

Course Objectives:

  • Understand every term and concept contained within the GD&T Standards
  • Learn how advanced datum controls are interpreted and applied in measurement
  • Understand functional gaging and how to design a gage for quick part inspection
  • Learn the benefits of composite controls for position and profile tolerances and how to interpret them
  • Know how to calculate fixed & floating fastener applications and guarantee the fits of bolted connections
  • Learn cost saving techniques that benefit manufacturing processes and inspection
  • Perform boundary tolerance calculations on parts to detect minimum and maximum limits
  • Gain a full understanding of their industry’s specific topics in the ASME Yl4.5 standard

You’ll leave this course equipped to design, interpret, and understand GD&T real engineering drawings-and empowered to work more confidently, communicate more clearly, and produce parts more efficiently.
