CADclass began in 2020 as a small 3D printing company before shifting fully to CAD education in 2021. Our mission is simple: make learning CAD fun, engaging, and accessible for students and teachers everywhere. We create everything in-house—filming and editing our own videos, writing and publishing our books, and developing hands-on curriculum that brings classroom ideas to life.

Our resources have reached hundreds of thousands of learners worldwide.
Jake Sugden - CTO

Maker & mechanical engineer Jake Sugden is a true jack-of-all trades. Not only does he write and edit the courses & books, he films & edits the videos, does all of our graphic design work, and still manages to 3D print custom creations almost daily. His Youtube videos have been viewed by 100,000's of people and his courses have touched the lives of 1000's worldwide. There's nothing Jake can't learn... and then teach.


Joshua Manley - CEO
