Learning how to use geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) shouldn’t be complicated or time-consuming. That’s why we started GD&T Basics - to give you the practical GD&T knowledge you need to design, manufacture, and inspect parts more efficiently.
Our ASME Certified instructors have trained 10,000 engineers, machinists, and production managers at the world’s leading manufacturers. Our pragmatic approach to GD&T saves clients countless hours, millions of dollars, and hundreds of headaches by preventing deviations, delays, and disputes.
Other GD&T certification training programs teach you how to memorize the ASME Y14.5 standard, but not how to apply it to your production process. At GD&T Basics, we combine practical GD&T knowledge with real-world experience to give you a technical curriculum with practical context.
While other engineers are struggling through ineffective classes, you’ll be capitalizing on these advantages of our unique GD&T training approach.
Conquer confusion with our straightforward approach that teaches you how GD&T can simplify production, instead of overcomplicating it.
Learn how to solve real engineering problems by applying GD&T to actual examples, rather than memorizing theories you’ll never need.
Access training when, where, and how you want with GD&T online training, on-site classes, public seminars, and customized solutions.
Engage with Senior-Level GD&T Certified Instructors who teach from real-world industry experience and time-tested GD&T knowledge.
Make the most of your training budget with group rates and bundling discounts, backed by the GD&T Basics 30-day money-back guarantee.
Implement your GD&T skills immediately with a confident grasp of how these standards impact your daily production workflow.
Our GD&T classes are designed for anyone who makes, reads, and uses technical drawings, including:
Get flexible GD&T training solutions for your group or just you.
Get your company’s design, manufacturing, and inspection teams in-sync with GD&T group training. Our team-based courses can be tailored to solve your toughest engineering challenges, providing laser-focused curriculum to streamline communications, minimize waste, and control costs.
