Who this book is for

This book targets individuals who would like to get started with SOLIDWORKS and be able to feel comfortable using the software. They could be aspiring engineers, designers, makers, draftsmen, and hobbyists. This book is also designed for individuals who are interested in becoming Certified SOLIDWORKS Associates (CSWAs) or Certified SOLIDWORKS Professionals (CSWPs). 

The book does not require a specific background in order to follow it, as it starts from the basics of what SOLIDWORKS is and how to use it. However, basic theoretical background knowledge of what 3D modeling is would be helpful.
