"Arthur Hobden is teaching me about Autodesk Fusion 360 and prosthetic workflows. I highly suggest checking out his courses and you even get CEU's! Its a great place to start and get empowered to do your own digital work with a cost effective solution. "

- Brent Wright CPO at Eastpoint O&P

"Just finished the "Cad and Product Design for O+P Professionals from Arthur Hobden. I worked with Fusion 360 in school and on and off since then, but this course was a great way to get back into it with some tools that are very specific to #oandp. He does a great job of showing you how it's relevant for the devices we design and fit! "

- Ben Wright CPO at BCM Ottobock Care

"Arthur has created a succinct course in developing designs for a C-Leg as well as learning the concepts for the individual clinician/technician to adapt for various bodies. I found the flow of the content to be well paced with attention to detail as to why I was performing these functions. This course will not only allow me to create future designs quickly, but also provide the tools to come up with new and creative designs for our patients needs and desires. I feel, with Arthur's courses anyone in the field would be capable of continuing to do what we do best, create for ourselves and give the patients the best outcome. "

- Josh Parker CPO at Prosthetic Orthotic Institute

"The collaborative thinking has been fantastic with Arthur, what we were able to do together was really question how are you able to use fusion 360, and you went to areas and features that know one else thought of, features that were used in different industries, gathered the best of them and put them into a format that created a workflow that leveraged the strengths of each package, so we were were able to consistently get more and more work done using fusion 360."

- Mark Roser Founder, Principal Investigator at Results Group LLC

"Since Arthur had been in the O&P industry prior, he understood the many clinical challenges that I as an Orthotist faced. Other than guiding me the know how’s with the software, we had so much fun designing together on new products to make things better. I highly recommend anyone who has a passion and vision of taking things to the digital space to embark on this course. "

- Susanna Koh Co-Founder, Orthopaedia Singapore

"Easy to follow and produces strong skills! The strength of the program is its logical explanation and focus on approaches to motivate efficient CAD habits. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to become proficient fast and can appreciate a thoughtfully constructed course! Looking forward to the next courses from O-P Digital Designer."

- Tom Cotton Product Engineer at FlyBand

"Before taking this Fusion 360 course online, I had minimal knowledge of working in CAD. Watching the instructional videos taught me new techniques and workflows I would have never known on my own. I can now confidently say that my comprehension of CAD is substantially improved, and I hope to learn more in the future!"

- Taiwo Akinsanya O&P technician at national orthopedic hospital igbobi Lagos, Founder Dynalimb Technologies

"This online course was the best resource I could ask for my transfer from SolidWorks to Fusion 360. I’m a CAD designer who has been using SolidWorks for Biomedical applications for the past 10 years. This course smoothed my transition to Fusion 360, by providing well-explained instructions on the essential features of CAD software along with meaningful examples. Moreover, it got me interested in Fusion 360 by providing amazing instruction and emphasizing the unique feature of Fusion 360. I strongly recommend this course!"
