PRAISE FOR NO ENGINEER LEFT BEHIND
I was able to find full-time...[work] due to my [attendance at] "No Engineer Left Behind" and get familiar with [SolidWorks] 2009 and sharpen my skills. I was able to refresh my skills since I hadn't been using it for the last few months as our plant was closing and not much design work was taking place.
Thank you to FISHER/UNITECH for helping me get back into the market.
