--- title: SoftwareTraining.co.za Site Overview source_url: https://softwaretraining.co.za/ fetched_at: 2026-08-12T21:20:00Z category: training --- # SoftwareTraining.co.za — Site Overview ## What it is **SoftwareTraining.co.za** is AM.CO.ZA’s public library of **short, problem-solving, easy-to-follow software training videos**. Tagline on the homepage: “Software Training Videos — Short Problem Solving Easy-to-Follow Videos.” It is **not** a paid course platform in the traditional sense: content is presented as a free (for customers/users) repository of topic-specific mini-series and individual tutorials, watchable at the user’s own pace. Many pages also offer **Watch on YouTube** and **Download MP4** for individual videos. ## What the site offers - Large catalogue of **video tutorials** organised by machine/software category (CNC router, vinyl cutter, laser, plasma/FabriCAM, RIP/print, etc.). - **Mini-series indexes** that group related parts (e.g. RouterCAM basics, InkRIP ICC profiles, FabriCAM nesting). - **Search** (top-right on video pages) to isolate software topics. - **Request a training video** form at `/request` when a topic is missing. - **Contributor / creator programme** (About page) inviting skilled users to submit videos for placement — contact `softwaretraining@am.co.za`. - Cross-links to **YouTube** for the same tutorials. ## Format of content Videos are typically: - Short and task-focused (problem → steps → result). - Organised as **Part N** within a mini-series, with an **index page** listing parts. - Presented by experienced users / trade professionals (explicitly called out on the TruCUT RDWorks overview article). - Updated frequently (site claims daily updates in video intros). ## Softwares called out on the homepage (nav / chips) Examples listed on the public homepage include: - SAi FlexiPRINT (a.k.a. SAi PhotoPRINT) - EasyRoute JDPaint - Autodesk Fusion 360 - SAi EnRoute - FastCOLOUR MainTop - LabelMark EzCad - TruCUT LaserCut - TruCUT LaserDRW - LaserCEO (Plus extensive coverage elsewhere for InkRIP, VinylCut, RouterCAM, FabriCAM, TruCUT RDWorks, FlexiSTARTER, etc. — see `software-covered.md`.) ## Relation to AM.CO.ZA CNC training Public am.co.za already promotes SoftwareTraining.co.za as the free CNC/software how-to channel. On this domain, AM.CO.ZA is named as the cutting-systems specialist that built the site so customers can use supplied software productively after basic operational training from technical staff. See `am-co-za-relationship.md`. ## Scope of this ingest Focused summaries of public pages only. Individual video transcripts were sampled for overview, not mirrored as a full dump. **No product prices** stored. Login/register areas on `/request` noted separately in the manifest.
