Description
AutoCAD is a CAD (Computer Aided Design or Computer Aided Drafting) software application for 2D and 3D design and drafting.
Through this course students will learn powerful tools and techniques for customising AutoCAD, file maintenance, collaboration, connecting to external databases, and implementing CAD Standards and file referencing. Discover ways of printing and plotting drawings, and understanding views and view ports. Learn about layouts, transpatial dimensioning and plotter configuration files. Use style tables to control how information is plotted.
Career Opportunity
One-on-one tuition is provided during the class to help students achieve their best results.
The potential of computer-aided drafting to continually advance architectural professions offers many exciting career opportunities.
