Dassault Launches 'DS Campus' Website
 SURESNES,
France, May 22, 2008 - Dassault Systems (DS) (Nasdaq: DASTY; Euronext
Paris: #13065, DSY.PA), a world leader in 3D and Product Lifecycle
Management (PLM) solutions, today announced the inauguration of a global
virtual campus for students and educators, as well as employers interested
in the education ecosystem. This international community Web site is
designed to inspire visitors through its forums, tutorials, project
showcases, articles, training materials and downloadable software,
ultimately helping them develop the knowledge and skills necessary for
success in tomorrow’s dynamic workplace environments.
The site, named “DS Campus”, helps future engineers and technicians
master cutting-edge 3D and PLM solutions used by the most innovative
companies and that are quickly becoming mainstream. The global virtual
campus provides among other services free online video training materials to
help members boost their PLM software skills. It also facilitates
international collaboration through its discussion forums, project
showcases, and capabilities for students to recruit sponsors.
One of the many students and educators who worked with Dassault Systems
to prepare the site, Edwin Anderson, CATIA teaching assistant at the
University of Idaho, commented, “I thoroughly enjoy having DS Campus
available for the students, particularly the tutorials. They are very short
and to the point, and they allow the students to gain a brief overview of a
workbench and its functionality. From here we can explore more in-depth
tools and processes.”
The international community Web site is also for educators, with a
platform dedicated to teaching methods and the provision of specialized
teaching materials. Through DS Campus, teachers also have access to one of
cyberspace’s most advanced online PLM libraries.
“PLM and 3D technologies are advancing at an incredible speed. To keep
up, it’s crucial for educators to be able to easily access an international
exchange platform such as DS Campus and to leverage teaching best practices
from around the world,” explained Xavier Fouger, director of Dassault
Systemes’ Global Learning and PLM Academy. “DS Campus is built upon real
workplace scenarios and is relevant to how industries are using PLM today
and tomorrow. It helps prepare truly global engineers.”
DS Campus not only provides a full library of over 400 interactive
courseware items. A first in the U.S. and Canada, it also enables students
to download market-leading software packages including CATIA V5 for only the
price of a textbook. To learn more about DS Campus, visit: campus.3ds.com
