Get the Most Out of PDX 2025 – Sign Up for Training Sessions!

At PDX 2025, we’re redefining what it means to attend a professional event. This isn’t your typical conference or trade show—it’s an immersive, hands-on training experience designed specifically for product development engineers. The best way to maximize your time here is by signing up for training sessions led by top industry experts.

Unlike a typical trade show, where you passively browse booths, PDX is about learning through action. Exhibitors are here to teach, not just showcase products. These interactive sessions go beyond product demos, offering practical, real-world learning you can apply immediately. Whether you want to improve your GD&T skills, refine your DFM approach, or get expert advice on a current project, this is your chance to engage directly with industry leaders.

Scroll down to explore the session lineup and reserve your spot in as many as you can fit—no limits! Take advantage of this unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience and make the most of your time at PDX 2025.
