Mastercam, CAD/CAM software developed by CNC Software, Inc., has made free training available to those looking to sharpen their skills. From now until June 30, 2020, users can sign up to take a full set of Mastercam core classes on Mastercam University.

Mastercam University offers 24/7 access to fully online training and the courses are designed to be self-paced. Each lesson contains a set of learning objectives, assessment questions and challenges to be completed. Users will earn a certificate for each course that is completed.

The following is a list of the free courses being offered on Mastercam University:

Mastercam Essentials

  • STEM: Principles of Machining
