Modular Concept
I3DL ™ – International 3D Printing Driving Licence is a “Modular” training and Certification Program. So that the contents of Modules and Sub-modules can be customized to the needs of special target groups.
As of now, the structure of I3DL ™ Training Program consists of 12 basic Modules, where Module 1 and 2 are Basic Modules, and it recommend for every body. I3DL Modules 3 to 11 are elective subjects. Module 12 is a Practical Internship, Project Report or Thesis on 3D Printing, which can also be integrated into a university program.
