Hi,

Unless your job is CATIA specific (consultant...), then I would suggest to let your boss pay for the training. If your value is your experience (you worked several years in automotive, aero, mold...) your boss should be glad enough to find someone like you and pay for the training.With that he will know what kind of training you had.

If you don't have any experience then it's up to you. But be carefull, choose a good training... Ask several companies where they get training and what they think about it... Do not trust any training office unless you know them from a previous experience... Years ago nobody had V5 experience, so did the trainers. But today, trainers MUST have field experience, not only few weeks of practice using the same exercice... I've been told about people giving training the week after they've been trained !!! They didn't know CATIA enough and they had no experience in training...

Good luck and Welcome in the world of CATIA V5!!!

I've been "trained" several times in V5 and the old addage "if you don't use it, you lose it" is VERY true. I work in V4 about 35 hours a week. Our company is making the move to V5 around 1Q2004. I don't remember enough of V5 to even review it. Way sad. Yeah, I'm old but I didn't think I was THAT old.

Anyway, my advice is that if you aren't going to use it within a month, put off the training.
