Micro-credential overview

Additive manufacturing is an advanced manufacturing technique that gradually adds layers of materials together through a process of 3D printing.  The resulting objects can be lighter-weight and more complex than those produced through traditional manufacturing techniques.  This micro-credential gives learners an introduction to the fundamentals of 3D printing, additive design and manufacturing.

Upon completion of this micro-credential, learners will be able to:

  • understand the principles of additive manufacturing and industrial 3D printing
  • use computer-aided design (CAD) software to create production-ready designs
  • apply knowledge of the additive manufacturing process to produce basic 3D printed objects
  • investigate additive part selection and develop a business case for the use of additive manufacturing.
