Q: Why use a model rigging training kit?
Answer

Research has shown time and again that using physical manipulatives is a much more effective means of teaching difficult subjects like mathematics. We use the same concept. With models and tactile feedback, in combination with our kit-based workshops, the brain can engage auxiliary memory systems and create more neural connections that improve learning and retention.

Put simply, you know that getting your hands on the parts and doing the work is how you learn best. The model rigging kits give you functional models of the same pieces you have on the job site.

Q: How is this different than training videos or online courses?
Answer

You are using your hands as part of the learning process, not just to click the mouse or scroll down a webpage.

Q: What are the pieces made of?
Answer

The kit components are made of safe and common thermoplastics used in 3D printing.

Q: How much weight can the components hold?
Answer

The kits are not rated for any load, nor are they intended to lift anything other than TactiLearning’s distinctive load boxes and the included cylindrical loads. These are model rigging components designed for training, not lifting.

Q: How many pieces are in a kit?
Answer

Each kit has the necessary components to complete the workshops that go with them. The specific number of components is listed with each kit. Additional or replacement parts are available.

Q: What's the difference between a kit and an add-on?
Answer

Model rigging training kits are designed for a more comprehensive experience while the add-ons are designed to be used with the kits that you already own and provide a limited number of additional workshops.

Q: Why do I need workshops?
Answer

Having model rigging parts available does not mean you are getting effective training. You need to learn how to use those parts effectively and that is what our workshops allow you to do.

Q: Who writes your workshops?
Answer

Top men. Literally. These professionals have decades of real-world training experience around the world. These are the same men who helped write the NCCCO Certification Test and much, much more.
