At Alignex, we pride ourselves on the quality, frequency and advanced level of training we provide our customers.  Most of our SolidWorks Training is based in the Twin Cities, MN at our Alignex Resource Center where we have over 5000 sq/ft of classroom space!  We currently have 11 Classrooms between our Alignex Resource Center in Edina, MN(5), our Davenport, IA location(2), our Fargo, ND location(1), our Eau Claire, WI location(1) and our Mobile Classrooms(2). With the mobile classrooms, we regularly schedule SolidWorks Training at hotel and convention facilities throughout the upper Midwest for the further convenience of our customers.  We also arrange for Custom SolidWorks Training at customer facilities to save them travel expenses and to provide a condensed curriculum.  Our Application Engineers are very well spoken and communicate the course materials in a clear and thorough manner. The trainers are the same Application Engineers that work our Support desk, so they can help students with specific issues related to the products they will be working with regularly.

Our fleet of 45 dedicated training workstations each have at least 2.8 GHz of Processing Power and at least 2 GB of RAM.  Each workstation is paired with an optical mouse for precision and a 19" Flat Panel Monitor for clarity.  The fleet is well maintained and kept up to date with the latest versions of software available.
