Basic CAD Pattern Drafting using Gerber Technologies™
Class #: CAC01F
Register at http://www.ccsf.edu/Services/Continuing_Education/textf/cact.html
This workshop is aimed at those who have a firm grasp of flat pattern drafting concepts, either by hand-drafting or using some other CAD program, and who wish to learn how to use Gerber Technologies™, the program that has been the industry standard for garment and sewn product manufacture for years. In this 8-session workshop you will learn to use this powerful CAD tool to manipulate pattern blocks or slopers, and create complete production patterns for new styles. The San Francisco Center for Applied Competitive Technologies (SFCACT) has one of the few fully-equipped Gerber training labs in the Bay Area, housed at City College's Evans Campus. Our goal is to assist designers and pattern makers to upgrade their job skills in a cost-effective way. For more information contact designstudio@ccsf.edu
