This course will teach you how to work with parametric surface modeling in CREO Parametric. Working with surfaces is a powerful and flexible way of building models that can be difficult to construct using solid modeling techniques. The techniques are useful for creating organic, ergonomic and aesthetically pleasing shapes, but many of the tools used can also be used to build better and more robust solid models. An understanding of surface modeling is a useful tool for most CAD designers.
