Although the SolidWorks class (DAI 521) is only budgeted to be offered through regular university once a year in the spring, I've arranged to be able to offer the class through the College of Extended Learning (CEL) this fall. According to the online catalog, DAI 521 will be offered on Saturdays from 10:10am to 4:55pm. The first class is Saturday, Sept 1 (yes, this is labor day weekend; note that the Bay Bridge will be closed!)

Of course, I would rather be able to offer the fall course through regular university, but going through CEL does bring the advantage of a smaller class size, which means more time for me to provide personal instruction. I also hope to have at least one TA next semester to assist students with their work.

CEL classes do require an additional fee. Registration begins on July 30, 2007. Information on how to register is available at the CEL website.
