From CAD to CAM (Mastercam 2017)

Hello everyone,

Here is my situation:

I have been a design office technician for roughly ten years and a traditional and CN2.5D machinist on a specific CAM as a complement to my activity. I will soon be retraining as an NC programmer technician by personal choice and to be closer to the workshop.

My future employer uses Mastercam. 

My problem is the following: I have a hard time getting started on this software. Being currently on leave at the end of my contract, I downloaded the mastercam 2017 demo, but damn the help is obviously very reduced and no access to the official tutorials without a paid license... Interesting concept.

Could you advise me to get started? Or do you know of a site offering tutorials starting from the basics?

Thank you in advance to all those who will answer.

Flo.

Ps: I've been rummaging around on Youtube for quite some time I find bits of answers here and there, but it's super long to not make much progress in the end.

Look at the PODFs hosted at MasterCam EU https://www.google.fr/search?hl=fr&as_q=mastercam&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_nlo=&as_nhi=&lr=&cr=&as_qdr=all&as_sitesearch=http%3A%2F%2Fmastercam-france.eu&as_occt=any&safe=images&as_filetype=pdf&as_rights=#q=mastercam+site:http://mastercam-france.eu+filetype:pdf&safe=images&hl=fr&as_qdr=all&start=0
