Advanced GD&T | 2-Day GD&T Training

Per-Student Registration

The Advanced GD&T course is a 2-day, instructor-led training designed for experienced users of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) who want to deepen their understanding and apply GD&T more effectively in real manufacturing and inspection environments.

Taught at Made to Measure, this course focuses on advanced applications of the ASME Y14.5 standard, emphasizing inspection-oriented tolerancing, functional datum selection, and the real cost of incorrectly applied or overly constrained GD&T.

Each registration reserves one seat per student for this onsite training seminar.

What You’ll Learn

This Advanced GD&T class builds on foundational GD&T knowledge and focuses on applying tolerancing principles to complex designs and real-world manufacturing challenges.

By the end of the course, students will:

• Apply advanced GD&T concepts with confidence
• Understand how datum selection impacts manufacturing and inspection
• Interpret complex tolerance zones and composite controls
• Reduce errors caused by incomplete or improperly toleranced drawings
• Improve communication between design, manufacturing, and inspection teams

The course highlights how GD&T controls part function, improves inspection strategy, and reduces wasted time and cost across the production process.

Instruction is lecture-based with time dedicated to student questions and classroom discussion. Participants are encouraged to bring their own drawings (with company permission) to work through real GD&T challenges and learn from practical examples.
