IronCAD in education
IronCAD has been successfully used in Dutch education for many years. Several mbo and hbo institutions use IronCAD for lessons in 3D modeling, product development and interior design.
Wood and furniture college
At HMC, students work with IronCAD on a daily basis to design furniture and complete interiors. IronCAD is an integral part of the curriculum for professional courses in furniture and interior design.
“The speed at which HMC students can model furniture makes it the ideal tool for any craftsman,” said Bram Bekkers, instructor of Wood and Furnishings College Amsterdam.
ROC van Twente
As of 2024, IronCAD is included in the curriculum of ROC van Twente. The software supports students in developing technical drawings and 3D models.
Forta
Since 2023, Forta has been using IronCAD within its hands-on education program. The software is used for students between the ages of 12 and 18 in subjects focused on engineering and product development.
Student experiences
“In school, I also learned to work with other similar software packages. With any program, practice makes perfect, but in my opinion IronCAD is a lot more user-friendly.”
