 +==== Classroom ====
 +  * 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 [[https://www.rhino3d.com/7/system-requirements/|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 [[https://www.rhino3d.com/download/rhino-for-windows/7/evaluation|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.
 +
 +==== Goal: ====
 +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.
 +
 +==== Content: ====
 +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
 +  * 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.
