Certified SolidWorks Professional (CSWP) The CSWP exam is a comprehensive, non-proctored online exam that tests an individual’s ability to design and analyze parametric parts and movable assemblies using a variety of complex features in SolidWorks, including design validation tools. A Certified SolidWorks Professional is an individual that has successfully passed this exam. The goal of the Certified SolidWorks Professional Program is that it establishes an Industry standard by which SolidWorks professionals are evaluated. This evaluation is completed using a fair, comprehensive test of your knowledge of SolidWorks both in the areas of Mechanical Design and Design Validation. Completing the evaluation will accomplish two goals. First, on an individual level, achieving certification establishes you as a highly competent professional in the use of SolidWorks. Second, for the hiring managers, acts as a valuable assessment to attest for the individual’s competency, thereby reducing the amount of time and energy required to research prospective candidates.
