Verisurf Software partners with OpenX to close skills gap

Verisurf Software partnered with OpenX, an interactive learning platform, to provide comprehensive education courses to those looking to pursue a career in dimensional metrology or expand their skills in specific application areas. Current courses include Reverse Engineering, which includes Fast 3D Scanning and 3D Printing Workflows, and 3D Surface Modeling. Future courses are expected to include Portable Inspection, and Programmable CMM Inspection.

“Technology continues to grow exponentially in today’s manufacturing environment. In its wake, skilled workforce development struggles to keep up, with many considering access to advanced training inaccessible, which can cause confusion for some about the viability of their career paths or career trajectory,” said Cody James, Director of Sales and Marketing for OpenX.

Verisurf Software develops metrology software solutions rooted in Model-Based Definition (MBD).  At the heart of the MBD is the CAD Model, which defines a part or entire product providing a defined 3D data set, including all necessary GD&T annotations for  inspection, measurement, analysis, tool building and reverse engineering.

Verisurf training, using the OpenX online platform, is available 24/7 to any organization or individual seeking to learn dimensional metrology skills. Courses can be accessed using desktop computer, laptop, tablet, or smartphone.  For more information or to subscribe, visit OpenX, or view the video (link)
