Hopefully by now your know that through your SOLIDWORKS Subscription Service you receive FREE SOLIDWORKS Certification Exam codes every six months for a CSWA, CSWP bundle, or a SOLIDWORKS Advanced exam.

This is a great way to get recognition in industry of your SOLIDWORKS skills as well as add value to the company your work for by being able to say that all your designers or engineers are SOLIDWORKS certified. The one question that I receive quite often is…

This is awesome that we get free codes, now how do I use them to pay for the exam?

Well hopefully I can clarify the process so you can get on your way to SOLIDWORKS Certification Bliss.
