I never expected how immediately Part Design for Injection Molding would prove beneficial to us. During class, Jeremy presented us with a test method that proved a great addition to our existing methods. Within days of returning to our office, we were able to get the data we needed using the new test method. To top it off, the class was interactive, engaging, and fun. Everyone who attended got something out of it regardless of their experience level.
