• Each ART candidate will need to be at a computer that is acceptable to run Rhinoceros for Windows (current version). The Rhino minimum system requirements are here. You will also need a good Internet connection and mic/speakers or a headset with mic for the GoToTraining.
• Rhino for Windows will be used by the instructor during the training.
• Rhino for Mac is ok, and it will be briefly discussed. But you will need to be able to keep up with the Windows presentation.
• The Rhinoceros for Windows 90 Day Evaluation (current version) is available for download here.
• All session will be recorded for your review and study. Recordings are generally posted the day of the session.
• Attendance for the live training is mandatory.
• Web cam sharing for each session is required to confirm your attendance.
• ART Candidates will be required to provide name, location and contact information.

This course will concentrate on how to teach Rhino. How to make users more successful in a short time and without the pain of trial and error. We will not cover in detail each part of Rhino, still the Level I and II guides will be the main reference.

The following is a list of topics that will be discussed during the course.

• A welcome from McNeel North America
• ART and ARTC requirements
• New Rhino licensing tools
• Level I and II basic courses
• One on one training versus class training. Getting to know your pupils.
• Class setup (windows / Mac)
• Level I training: the most important one. A good start for an excellent user.
• Why Rhino. Where the program sits in a project’s workflow.
• Interface basics for the end user.
• Precision modeling.
• Making good curves.
• More complex Curve handling.
• Keeping your project under control: layers organizations and templates.
• Surfaces in Rhino.
• “Solids” how to use in a NURBS environment.
• Surfacing tools. Which ones and in what sequence.
• Meshing for visualization versus meshing for Rapid Prototyping.
• Present a Helpful Level I course: Make simple but controlled objects.
• Boolean explained. What could go wrong.
• NetworkSrf a close look and caveat.
• Surfacing in depth (Level II). Comparing different techniques.
• The Approach to Modeling: How do objects made with different techniques compare? Advanced ways to analyze objects.
• Fillets
• Annotations and Layouts
• Section Tools: Clipping Sections and Clipping Drawings
• UDT
• Implicit History
• From Implicit to Explicit History aka Grasshopper
• While we do not require our ARTs to have a specific knowledge in Grasshopper or any other programming language, it would be good to provide the end users a minimal information about what Grasshopper is.
