What do William Shakespeare, a horse carriage, and Rudyard Kipling have in common with the 3DEXPERIENCE platform? More than you might think. In this session, we’ll take a playful yet practical look at the platform’s core concepts and break them down into something simple and memorable. Dashboards, Apps, Roles, and 6WTags can be confusing if you’re just starting out, but they don’t have to be. Through storytelling and clear examples, you’ll learn how to understand the key building blocks of 3DEXPERIENCE, differentiate between terms that often get mixed up, and see the platform from a new perspective. Whether you’re a beginner looking to demystify the basics or an experienced user who wants to refresh your foundation, this session will give you a simpler way of thinking about 3DEXPERIENCE—and a few stories you won’t forget.Session Type: Masterclass - Product Briefings - Masterclass - Best Practices & WorkflowsConsumer Packaged Goods - RetailEducation & LearningDesigners & EngineersEducatorsStudents3DEXPERIENCE SOLIDWORKSSOLIDWORKS for Education/StudentsSOLIDWORKSIntermediateAdvancedDesignIndustrial DesignUserMonday, Feb 0211:00 a.m. Monday, Feb 02

At a time when society is questioning the value of a university education, it becomes even more important to provide instruction that prepares students for careers. Preparing students to take the CSWA should be an integral part of engineering and design education. Integrating CSWA exam preparation into university coursework helps students develop technical competence and career readiness. CSWA certified students stand out in job applications and interviews. CSWA certified students often report increased confidence in their technical abilities. In this session I will share how I integrate CSWA practice into my curriculum to build student skills, increase confidence, and bridge the gap between academic theory and professional practice.Session Type: Collaborative Learning - MeetUp Sessions - Product Training - BYOD Hands-On WorkshopConsumer Packaged Goods - RetailHome & LifestyleDesigners & EngineersMakersStudentsSOLIDWORKS xDesignIntermediateDesignIndustrial DesignUserMonday, Feb 0211:00 a.m. Monday, Feb 02

“Stay in the Flow” is the secret to unlocking peak productivity, sharper focus, and even a touch of bliss. In this session you’ll learn how to command SOLIDWORKS 2026 using only the graphics area without touching the FeatureManager Tree or Command Manager. By reducing mouse movement by over 75%, your eyes stay locked on the model, the brain stays in design mode, and distractions vanish. Why does this matter? An IBM study showed that any deviation from your direct line of thought lasting more than one second pulls you out of the flow state, drastically impacting productivity and increasing fatigue. Every time your eyes chase the cursor, you lose focus. Hunting for icons or scrolling the tree breaks your rhythm and drains your energy. By the end of the day, you’re exhausted not from designing but from searching. This session will change the way you work. You’ll leave with a new approach to keep you immersed in your design, energized, and in control.

We’ll also explore critical admin workflows: adding members to the tenant, assigning roles, defining content-naming rules, mapping custom attributes between SOLIDWORKS and the platform, and setting up toolboxes, materials, and file locations. Whether you’re an admin ensuring structure or a designer focused on productivity, you’ll walk away with the knowledge to streamline work, reduce errors, and unlock your team’s full potential.Session Type: Masterclass - Best Practices & Workflows - Product Training - Hands-On WorkshopHigh TechIndustrial Equipment (inc.

This session is about changing your approach to the SOLIDWORKS interface. You will leave pondering how to move from using the default layout to intentionally crafting a personalized workspace that anticipates your next move. We will focus on mastering the UI's landscape and language. You will learn not just where key elements like the Command Manager or Status Bar are, but why knowing their proper names is crucial for effective communication with tech support and other users. This shared vocabulary, combined with an organized FeatureManager Design Tree, transforms your model from a private design into a clear, collaborative document. The goal is for you to leave with a new mindset: to critically evaluate your own process and continuously optimize your UI for speed and clarity. Through discussion and interactive quiz questions, you'll gain the ability to "read" your model’s health at a glance, transforming the interface from a simple tool into an active partner in your design process.Session Type: Masterclass - Best Practices & Workflows - Masterclass - Best Practices & WorkflowsHigh TechDesigners & EngineersEngineering & CAD ManagersIT Managers3DEXPERIENCE PlatformGenerative DesignSOLIDWORKSBeginnerIntermediateAdvancedManufacturing / ProductionManufacturing Process & EngineeringUserMonday, Feb 0211:00 a.m. Monday, Feb 02
