SOLIDWORKS is a solid modeling computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided engineering program used by mechanical, electrical, and electronics engineers to form a connected design. SOLIDWORKS certifications are benchmarks to measure competency with SOLIDWORKS solutions. 

The Certified SOLIDWORKS Associate (CSWA) Additive Manfacturing certification focuses on the basic knowledge of 3D printing including material types, machine types, design for printing considerations, machine preparation, slicer software features, software based printing aids and post printing finishing. 

The Certified SOLIDWORKS Associate (CSWA) Mechanical Design certification focuses on knowledge of topics ranging from sketch entities, mass properties, standard mates and annotations.
