GD&T Design Public Training
The GD&T Design course builds on the concepts learned in GD&T Fundamentals and Advanced GD&T to provide a practical, application-focused approach to developing functional engineering drawings. You’ll learn how to select datums, dimensions, and tolerances that reflect true part function and manufacturing realities—instead of relying on default tolerances or legacy drawing standards.
Participants will develop a clear, repeatable process for selecting tolerance values, evaluating worst-case boundaries, and performing part- and assembly-level tolerance analysis. The emphasis is on real drawings, realistic tolerance choices, and workflows that can be applied immediately.
This course is ideal for design and manufacturing engineers, drafters, and anyone involved in defining, producing, or verifying parts.

Course Objectives
Who this training is for:
Our GD&T Design Course focuses on applying GD&T to make intentional, defensible design decisions. It builds on the knowledge gained in GD&T Fundamentals and Advanced, shifting from knowing the symbols to using them to design functional, manufacturable parts.
Primary Audience:
For those directly responsible for defining parts and drawings, including:
- Mechanical Engineers
- Design / Product Engineers
- Drafters and Designers
- Drawing Checkers
- Manufacturing / Process Engineers
Also Valuable For:
Anyone who influences or evaluates design decisions:
- Inspectors and machinists who review or interpret drawings
- Tooling, quoting, and supplier / manufacturing engineers
- Sales or technical professionals involved in manufacturability, quoting, or design validation
Prerequisite Knowledge:
Completion of GD&T Fundamentals and Advanced required. This course assumes you already understand GD&T symbols and core concepts.
We do not re-teach the basics — we teach you how to use GD&T to design.
