Join The DriveWorks Challenge 4

Paul Gimbel, DriveWorks Sherpa has announced the DriveWorks Challenge 4 brief!

If you’re new to the challenge, here’s how you can get involved…

The idea is simple, we provide you with a brief (find out more about that below), and all you need to do is come up with a solution that meets the requirements in the brief. The challenge is designed to be relatively quick (we certainly don’t want to make more work for you!) and to help you explore new ways of thinking and working within DriveWorks.

The goal of The DriveWorks Challenge is to provide you with a quick, fun puzzle that can help you shift mental gears and change the way that you look at DriveWorks and at your own implementation.

You will have plenty of time to complete the challenge as the closing date isn’t until 28th February. There’s no pressure and you can put as much or as little effort into it as you see appropriate.

At the end of the challenge, we’ll post a video and DriveWorks Package (.drivepkg) in the DriveWorks Learning Portal showing how we solved the challenge, along with some of our favorite submissions.

What is the Challenge 4 Brief?

For DriveWorks Challenge 4, we want you to develop the best use of SVG images in DriveWorks. So you can either:

  • Use the project provided to create the best SVG image

OR

  • Use the project to create the best use case for SVG images

The choice is yours!

Watch the video to see Paul’s Challenge 4 overview.

Please get your submissions in before 28th February 2024 to be in with a chance of winning a prize!


Who Can Take the Challenge?

The DriveWorks Challenge 4 is open to, and achievable by all DriveWorks skill levels. No engineering, IT or SOLIDWORKS knowledge required.

Take as much or as little time as you like (average time is around 30 minutes).

The deadline for submissions for prizes is Friday, 28th February.
You can of course submit after this time but your submission will not be entered into the prize draw.
