Here is the confusion again caused by PTC.
Do you mean Creo elements/pro or Creo?
They are two completely different CAD applications.
PTC has cause some major confusion by rebranding Pro/ENGINEER after so many years in the industry. People ask questions about Creo but they really mean Creo elements/pro 5.0 or Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 5.
It's confusing many on Youtube as well. You find many videos about Creo but when the video plays, you realize it's not Creo. It's Creo elements/pro which is not the same thing.
At our company, we stick with Pro/ENGINEER as the name and do not use Creo elements/pro. We are testing Creo 1.0 and it prevents confusion.

Correct, except you forgot the number "5" 🙂
Creo Elements/Pro 5.0 is Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 5.0
But....
Don't confuse Creo Direct with Creo Elements/Direct because they are not the same thing. Not to mention that Creo Elements/Direct was called Co-Create prior to all this confusion.
Creo Direct can't do what Creo Elements/Direct can, but Creo Parametric can do everything Creo Elements/Pro 5.0 can do, or what we called Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 5.0
Confused yet?

G Bon,
I am sorry this thread was derailed. My only intention was to clear up the confusion of the branding. If you look at your original post, you asked to learn about Creo Elements. Creo Elements is not Creo 1.0 Parametric and this is the only reason why I mentioned the confusion people are having with this.
I currently run Creo 1.0 Parametric everyday and have 3 other Engineers testing it out. We have not fully deployed it because we are in the middle of a Windchill 10 implementation.
There is no easy resource for learning Creo 1.0 at the moment, but if you are a Wildfire 5.0 user, you should have no problems with using Creo 1.0 without any training. You will discover some of the changes as you go and the search function allows you to find commands very easily.
I would suggest you download it, install it and just start using it.
I created a couple of videos on my Youtube channel that show the basic UI change. I plan on making more videos that cover some of the basics for people who are interested. Just need to find the time.
Here is a link to my channel, but there is not much there that can help you yet. stay tuned.

Well,
That's why I said that I'm using Pro/Engineer Wildfire 5 for many years and I want to learn more about Creo (so I mean Creo 1.0 parametric).
So any advice ?
Thanks,
