What is the Institute of 3D Printing?
Your all-in-one FDM 3D printing information source. From choosing your first printer and learning how to master it, through to becoming fully qualified for your dream 3D printing job and even how to grow a highly profitable 3D printing business. If you want to actually enjoy your hobby and/or revolutionise your life, work or business through FDM 3D printing, we'll help you do it.
Why use the Institute of 3D Printing?
We're dedicated to keeping things simple. When we originally entered the 3D printing business world (as the highest quality filament producer, rigid.ink Ltd) we quickly realised the amount of confusing, contradicting information our customers were spending hours finding. It wasn't acceptable. Therefore, we worked tirelessly researching what was already available, spent hours speaking to those struggling for answers to understand how we could make it simpler to get the correct information quickly. Allow us to keep your 3D printing experience simple and fun instead of confusing and frustrating.

The good news is we are swamped.
Your course has truly created a business which could easily generate over 500k in sales per year.
Tim Aucoin
Core Course Student
Excellent tips. I am still "learning" about the extrusion multiplier number.
I had no idea that even a 1% change could make a difference!
Jim Fehr
Innovative Product Accelerator Client
Last month I did $16,000 in sales...
Thank you for passing on what you have learned to others. Lives are really and profoundly being changed by your workshop.
Michael Hughes
Training Suite Member
Only been with Io3DP for a week and I have already learned a lot! I have gone through all the lessons I have access to and have been able to apply what I have learned to improve my printing.
John Lovekamp
Training Suite Member
I liked the brake down of slicers. You give a good basic understanding of 3D printing and some problems you may run into.
Keith Adley
Training Suite Member
I'm really enjoying watching the tutorials. I'm learning a lot more than I would if I just tried to dive in head first to 3D printing. I will have a better chance of early success having worked through these tutorials.
Bernhard Reichert
Training Suite Member
I think your site is great!
I have always been skeptical about paid offers, especially in the "maker area", where everyone is in need of communication anyway. But, your courses are very clear and easy to understand.
Nelson Olwe
Core Course Student
Just completed module 2 episode 3, wow, this is amazing stuff that simplified what most of us 'do it yourself' people have been going through. Would have saved a ton of filament if I had begun here.
Clint Hawkins
Training Suite Member
Nothing but 100% positive feedback for the site and staff that I've interacted with.
The site is very well laid out, the tutorial videos are well done, and the PDF guides are spot on.
Andrew Elia
Ultimate Beginners Guide Buyer
I found it very informative and explained everything clearly without being too patronising. The post print finishing book was also very good. I have been referring to them both for some of my print jobs.
Ella Helgadóttir
3D Printer Buyer's Guide Buyer
Thanks for the super sweet guide!
This has literally answers/info to every question a buyer should be asking her/himself before buying a printer.
Thurman Steward
Training Suite Member
I've been overwhelmed with the content and the resources that are accessible. Several classes are offered to the individual interest for the beginner, intermediate, and professional also.
Frequently Asked Questions
We've tried to compile the main questions we're asked but we've missed anything, contact success@io3dp.com and we'll be happy to help.
Do you cover all types of 3D printing?
No, we currently focus solely on FDM printing.
What 3D printers do you teach about?
You'll see a range of printers in our videos, but all lessons are relevant to all printers. We don't focus on individual printers, so no matter which printer you have, you'll be able to take our courses.
Our experts also have numerous printers to hand, plus previous experience with different printers and connections to others. So they are able to answer questions on any FDM printer.
I remember you having a monthly subscription, will all courses cost me monthly?
We still have our training suite available, which is a subscription service. This allowed us to deliver the right content, in the right order, at the right time - as well as increase our content library as we progressed.
However, not all of our courses are subscription based, in fact the majority aren't. We now offer individual courses for one-off payments (all covered by our 30-day moneyback guarantee). Hopefully, there is something for everyone, regardless of your financial situation and preferences.
Do we get free updates on the courses?
Yes, we are very proud to say that all our courses and guides come with free lifetime updates. As we update our content, you will be notified and given easy access to anything new on a previous purchase.
Let's Keep In Touch!
Whether it's general 3D printing information, new releases or special offers & discounts you're interested in, we'd love to stay connected.
