On June 1, the latest installment of Mastercam was released to the public in Mastercam 2024. In Mastercam’s 40th year, each release builds upon years of CAD/CAM innovation driven by Mastercam users and shops. Through real-world feedback from Public Beta releases, shop visits, customer surveys, and consultation with expert industry partners, Mastercam continuously delivers practical, shop-driven software that is the clear-cut leader of the industry. Below are some links to some key deliverables that Mastercam 2024 offers.

Mastercam 2024 Training Schedule

After you’ve visited one of our three Rollouts, you’ll likely want to sign up for our upcoming Mastercam 2024 training courses. Training is one of the most frequent questions we get, and because of that we offer online and in-person options.


Online training courses include Mill, Lathe, and Multiaxis. They’re five weeks long and instructor led. Assignments are released every Monday and quizzes are given every Friday. This is a great option if you need to sneak in training in between your busy work and life schedule.


In-person training courses include Mill and Lathe, and are one day per week for three weeks. They are held at our offices.


In total, we have nearly 30 courses that will run through the remainder of 2023. For more information, check out our Online Store.

CCCS Celebrates 30 Years


Dear CCCS Customers,


2023 marks the 30th anniversary of CAD/CAM CONSULTING SERVICES INC! I’m thrilled to celebrate this anniversary and know that it wouldn’t be possible without our loyal users who have helped get us to where we are today as the premier Reseller for Mastercam, Desktop Metal, and NCSIMUL in Southern CA and Nevada.


So how did it all begin? In 1993, when I was just a few years old, my late father Tom Shelar opened our first office in Newbury Park, CA. With strong ties to the Summers family, a penchant for manufacturing, and the opportunity to represent a relatively new technology in CAD/CAM, Tom set on a path to become a top Reseller in the world. By hiring a few key employees, many of whom are still working with us today, CCCS established a reputation for unparalleled sales, service, and support that is second to none when compared with any of the products and services we sell. Our success was built off of the mantra that the customer always comes first, and that still rings true today.

Since 1993 we’ve grown to nearly 20 employees, which includes three new additions this year alone. While some have come and gone, our commitment to the most important part of our business – you – is steadfast and unwavering. The hardworking culture my father instilled in us has not only crafted us as a business but has been ingrained in me since day one.


At CCCS we develop relationships, and many are still as strong as they were in the beginning. We’re local, we’re knowledgeable, and we’re always available to keep your manufacturing solutions running with an optimal output. Our staff isn’t here to just sell software and say good luck, we’re here to ensure your success. I see the next 30 years as no different.


It is with my heartfelt gratitude that I write this letter. We always have your back, and I just wanted to thank you for partnering in our mutual success over the years, and for years to come.

Thank you,

Patrick Shelar
