What would be better for this back-to-school week than thinking of how you can graduate in 3D Printing? Whether you are a scientist, an engineer, a designer we looked up for you all the schools and possibilities for you to get wise to 3D printing, in our Graduate in 3D Printing free eBooks series, that we present to you today. It is never too late to begin a 3D Printing education!

3D Printing is going to be more and more demanded in newly appearing jobs. According to Deloitte, the famous French Consulting Company, 9 out of 10 manufacturers are struggling to find the skilled workers needed—a shortage that is impacting production, quality, innovation, and growth. Thus, the demand—and expectations — for AM talents are high: Technical and engineering skills required for successful AM deployment range widely, from equipment design to material technology to data management.

Therefore, it is now more than ever the moment to start your education in 3D printing!

Our EBOOK SERIES intends to help you clarify your needs and evaluate the opportunity that 3D printing is for your business.
