Prerequisites
Access to the 2019 version of the software. The practices and files included with this guide might not be compatible with prior versions
As an introductory learning guide, Autodesk Inventor 2019: Introduction to Solid Modeling does not assume prior knowledge of any 3D modeling or CAD software. Students do need to be experienced with the Windows operating system and a background in drafting of 3D parts is recommended.
