Overview

SolidWorks Fundamentals Level 3 is designed for learners who want to build structured and practical understanding of Solidworks tools and workflows used in advanced 3D design and modelling. This course focuses on developing confidence in creating complex parts, assemblies, and design analyses using Solidworks within professional design and engineering environments.

The course explores advanced part modelling, assembly design, simulation awareness, and automation concepts, helping learners understand how Solidworks supports efficient product design, visualisation, and engineering communication. Learners develop insight into how Solidworks is applied across industries such as manufacturing, product design, and mechanical engineering support.

Throughout the course, Solidworks concepts are explained in a clear and accessible manner. Learners explore surface modelling, multibody design, advanced features, and assembly management techniques that support accurate and scalable design workflows. Emphasis is placed on understanding design intent, model organisation, and best practices rather than certification-based outcomes.

As learners progress, they are introduced to simulation and analysis concepts, including stress and thermal awareness, alongside advanced tools such as weldments, sheet metal, configurations, and basic automation. This course provides a strong foundation for learners seeking to enhance their Solidworks capability or progress to more advanced design-focused learning.

This course does not provide official software certification or professional authority. Instead, it focuses on building applied knowledge, technical awareness, and practical understanding of Solidworks suitable for further study or design support roles.

Description

This SolidWorks Fundamentals Level 3 course consists of four structured lectures, followed by an assessment, each designed to strengthen understanding of advanced Solidworks tools and design workflows.

Lecture 1 focuses on advanced part modelling, introducing complex surface modelling, loft and sweep features, multibody part design, and advanced fillet and chamfer techniques. Learners develop understanding of how Solidworks supports complex geometry creation and design refinement.

Lecture 2 explores assembly design, covering advanced assembly techniques, top-down assembly workflows, large assembly management, and interference detection. This lecture explains how Solidworks enables efficient assembly organisation, component relationships, and design validation.

Lecture 3 introduces simulation and analysis concepts within Solidworks. Learners explore finite element analysis basics, static and dynamic analysis, stress analysis, and thermal analysis awareness. These topics build understanding of how Solidworks supports design evaluation and informed decision-making without providing engineering certification.

Lecture 4 covers advanced Solidworks topics, including weldments, sheet metal design, advanced drawing and detailing, design tables, configurations, and basic macros and automation. This lecture highlights productivity tools and advanced features used in professional Solidworks environments.

Assessment includes a final exam to evaluate understanding of Solidworks fundamentals and advanced concepts.

Certification

Upon successful completion of the SolidWorks Fundamentals Level 3 course, learners will receive a free digital certificate provided by Reed confirming their achievement and skill mastery.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. If you work in certain professions or for certain companies, your employer may require you to complete a number of CPD hours or points, per year. You can find a range of CPD courses on Reed Courses, many of which can be completed online.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
