GD&T Fundamentals & Inspection 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.

2-Day GD&T Inspection Training
A practical course bridging the gap between drawing requirements and effective inspection practices.
The GD&T Inspection course provides a practical understanding of inspection considerations based on the drawing requirements. It focuses on real-world applications, bridging manual inspection methods with digital equipment such as CMM inspections. Participants will learn the GD&T inspection mindset – how to simulate part setups, measure parts using metrology equipment, and report inspection results.
Course Objectives:
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Perform the GD&T inspection process; setup, measure, & report
- Understand reality of metrology and measurement uncertainty
- Recognize essential manual tools for inspection
- Check size dimensions according to standards
- Learn how to physically setup and simulate part datum features
- Analyze inspection results and compare to drawing requirements
- Measure and calculate bonus tolerance based on size and position
- Apply standardized reporting methods for both CMM and manual results
- Transition from physical setups to digital setups using CMM
Pre-Requisites:
Completion of GD&T Fundamentals (or equivalent). This course focuses on inspection techniques and builds upon the students’ existing fundamental understanding of GD&T concepts.
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 Examples
- Our lessons utilize real-world drawing examples and have high quality animations, graphics, and videos of metrology equipment and setups to give our students a practical learning experience.
- 1-Year Access to Online Platform:
- Access to our live & pre-recorded monthly webinars is included with this training.
- Detailed GD&T Inspection Reference Chart
- 1-Year Access to our Instructor Question Line
Who Should Attend:
GD&T Inspection isn’t just for inspectors; it’s designed for anyone involved in the lifecycle of a manufactured part. Understanding how a part is inspected is critical for making the right decisions as a machinist, design engineer, or manager.
