In Lesson 1, we answered the question, Why would someone want a SOLIDWORKS certification?

One of the first questions educators asks me is, “What is the process to provide the CSWA exam to my students?” This was a question I had when I was teaching SOLIDWORKS at Mass Bay Community College many years ago.

The answer is simple. To become a SOLIDWORKS Academic Certification Provider fill out our our on-line application.

Click the following link: Academic Certification | SOLIDWORKS. The SOLIDWORKS Academic Certification Home page is displayed. The page provides a wealth of general certification information.

Slide the side bar downward as illustrated.

View the section on becoming a SOLIDWORKS Academic Certification Provider. An Academic Certification Provider is defined as an educational institution on subscription, with a minimum number of licenses (varies by country), that is eligible to administer CSWA, CSWP and other specialty exams.
