Noel Lopez

Noel Lopez became only the 2nd high school student in Georgia to pass the CSWP Exam. (Certified Solidworks Professional) The test consisted of 37 questions and 24 drafting and design tasks in a 200 minute testing window. He only missed a perfect score by 14 points. He is also the only person in the Dalton area to hold the certification. To clarify the magnitude of this accomplishment, the CSWP is the exit exam for most 4 year engineering institutions. Please congratulate him on this accomplishment! He has put the Southeast Engineering program on the map in the state of Georgia. Not to mention the fact that there are only 99,000 recipients worldwide!
