Additive Manufacturing Contents

Through PBL methodology:

The PBL methodology (Problem-Based Learning) focuses on learning through projects, where students tackle real problems. The project to be developed during the training process provides context and relevance, allowing students to actively apply the knowledge and skills acquired during the course. In this way, participants not only learn concepts, but also develop practical and transferable skills.
