Anyone taken training they would recommend for Solidworks Visulaize?
I'm having trouble finding classes or training available for SWx Visualize software. My boss is hot on me getting up to speed on this software to support making marketing material from our SWx designs. Does anyone have any experience or recommendations on training facilities or even online classes? I'm not having much luck looking online and the tutorials are pretty awful...
Thank you all for your assistance!

SW resellers offer a Visualize class.
You can download the course files and check them out. They won't teach much without the book, and instructor, but they will give an idea of the content:

Pluralsight has a course:

I'd start with an online search for "solidworks visualize tips". Then click on any link that looks promising. Most rendering skills beyond the basics are going to arrive in the form of tips from more experienced users.
Using the application is important as well. Renderings you make will look great... Until you've rendered a few hundred more images. Then you'll look back and wonder how/why you ever thought that image looked good.
You might also look at rendering tutorials for other programs. Some tips will cross over between applications. I made these Keyshot tutorials, but the PhotoShop bits could be useful:
