The RapidTech 2011 Workshop (NTTW) on rapid prototyping and additive manufacturing is sponsored by RapidTech, the National Science Foundation and our industry partners. The workshop is structured for hands-on labs and presentations each day. This will be an opportunity for institutions that utilize or anticipate adopting these technologies to hear from industry and experts about the latest and greatest developments. Attendance of this workshop will give you and your institution a competitive edge in the emerging field of additive manufacturing.

RapidTech is an educational entity that is part of Saddleback College and partially funded by the National Science Foundation. The National Center assists businesses, educational institutions, entrepreneurs and community-based organizations develop new products and designs using innovative rapid prototyping technologies, additive manufacturing, and reverse engineering. The rigorous educational program offers learning opportunities for interested students to learn and use these advanced technologies while collaborating on projects with national businesses in the aerospace, medical device, automotive, consumer products and art animation industries.
