Design Engine: More than just a name

The word engine ... it makes the motorcycle go and the car drive.  It's the heart and center of a vehicle.  In that respect Design Engine is the vehicle for pushing your career farther!

So Design Engine is more than just a name.  Its meaning conveys that we push the participants in an organized step-by-step process helping those in their current job excel or helping people find new exciting and more fulfilling jobs.  Many past students thank us for the motivation they received even ten years after attending a  Design Engine course.


WHY Design Engine is more than just a name:

1.  We don't just teach Pro/E or Rhino or Alias at Design Engine; we teach design and engineering.  I chose Pro/ENGINEER and designed this course called the four week comprehensive pro/engineer workshop.

2.  Resume help. We help with resume and job placement and/or offer encouragement for advancing at your current position or in your current field. We know what the managers are looking for in designers and engineers. We simply make sure your resume reflects those things. We also prepare you in the class to be able to answer questions during an interview. Our database is filled with thousands of contacts for job applicants or networking that we make available to all of our students for as long as they need them.

3. Our online websume service.  After we use our skills to improve your resume we allow you to post your resume on our websume site. Be prepared to receive 5 or more calls per week! Notice the list is fairly short, we take students down once they find jobs.

4. Assistance with contract agencies.  The agencies call us for applicants because we often custom train individuals for jobs that are in demand.  For example, there are many open requisitions for Pro/CABLE and RSD users and we often teach 2 weeks of both Pro/CABLE and RSD in our four week Pro/ENGINEER class.

--at any given time there are five Pro/CABLE or RSD jobs on Dice or CE weekly. 

5. Motivation.  Design Engine breathes inspiration into people and inspires them to reach for new tools with new vocabulary in both Industrial Design or Engineering.  For example, by showing a mechanical engineer what an industrial designer is and thinks, we open an entirely new field for more employment.

Workforce Investment Act
WIA federal grant training money now available to Michigan Residents to empower the unemployed and underemployed in many states. To inquire please call 312.226.8339. Ask about WIA and how can we help you get a job. See us on the Michigan WIA Training Providers site! 

DESIGN-ENGINE|EDUCATION has joined the Workforce Investment Act effort to help the unemployed and underemployed gain career training that is enabling and empowering in the workplace. Michigan's WIA program will give you funding to take our four weeks of Pro/ENGINEER Training.
Due to the slow economy and the large number of unemployed persons in the United States the federal government has made certain grant money available for training underemployed. Some grant money is available for manufacturers training their current workforce too.
With the grant, Design Engine Education gives our most popular four week comprehensive computer aided design software  Pro/ENGINEER. We have helped over 2,000 people obtain employment from our four week comprehensive workshop over the past 15 years.
You don't have to be unemployed, funding extends to large companies as well. Take Pro/ENGINEER training for example: an engineer gets laid off from a major manufacture and has 3,000 plus hours on Pro/ENGINEER. He or she can take our four week class with WIA funds to first get acquainted with Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 5.0 training then undergo two weeks of Pro/SURFACE Training and ISDX Training or Mechanica Training and Pro/CABLE. The person leaves our Pro/E training with skills most employers don't even have. Often with out even advanced notice, we will custom build any course.

The faculty and staff at DESIGN ENGINE|EDUCATION are committed to helping you find the career you are looking for or to help you excel in your present career. We are your advocates and we want to help you grow with skills and technique. Your success is of utmost important to us. We also provide help with your resume and offer insightful interview help. In the design world, our highly recognizable name can be an excellent way to get your foot in the door at your dream job. We maintain an active relationship with contract agencies such as Aerotek, Peak Technical, Black Diamond, Oxford International, and Butler to name only a few. Contract agencies actively recruit from our resume bank of past students. After you take a class with us,  our doors are forever open to you whenever you need them!
