Start real product design from Day One with CEFRPDD™-based industry training.
At Advanced Product Design School (APDS), we believe that a true product design engineer is not made by learning CAD commands alone. A real engineer must understand how products are planned, designed, manufactured, validated, documented, and delivered to industry.
APDS was founded by Ing. Saravanan, M.Tech., PGDTD, M.IPM (Germany), with 25+ years of global industry experience across automotive product design, plastics, tooling, BIW, APQP, DFMEA, DVP&R, and complete product development workflows. After gaining international academic exposure from HS Ansbach, Germany, he created APDS with one clear mission — to bridge the gap between college learning and real industry expectations.
APDS proudly introduces CEFRPDD™ – Common European Framework of Reference for Product Design & Development – a structured product design training framework created to make students industry-ready through real product development exposure from Day One.
Unlike traditional software training, CEFRPDD™ builds strong domain knowledge by training students in complete engineering workflow — from product requirements and design thinking to design verification planning, prototype understanding, root cause analysis, problem solving, engineering change management, and technical documentation.
At APDS, students learn not only how to model, but why a product is designed in a particular way.
Don’t just learn CAD. Learn how products are engineered.
To create industry-ready product design engineers by providing practical training based on real product development methodology, industrial projects, and domain knowledge.
To shape the next generation of globally competitive design professionals through practical learning, technical excellence, and real-world industry exposure.
