THE FIRST STEP TO MASTERING CAD MODELLING

The programme had a significant impact on the students,
teachers, and the local community:
1. Educational Impact
• Students gained fundamental CAD skills
relevant to engineering, architecture, and
manufacturing.
• Enhanced digital literacy and problem-solving
skills through hands-on CAD modeling
sessions.
• Increased student engagement in STEM fields,
preparing them for future careers.
2. Economic Impact
• By introducing CAD modeling early, students
develop job-ready skills, improving their
employability in the engineering sector.
• The use of free CAD software (OnShape)
reduces financial barriers, allowing students to
continue learning without cost.
3. Social Impact
• The program bridged the gap between industry
and education, encouraging collaboration
between schools and engineering fis.
• Teachers also benefited, as they were
introduced to new teaching methodologies for
CAD-based learning.
4. Community Engagement
• The initiative fostered a long-te partnership
between the school and industry, ensuring
continuous support for CAD learning.
• The success of the program demonstrated its
potential to be replicated in other institutions,
broadening the impact beyond a single school
