« back to classes page
AutoCAD is the most widely used computer-aided design (CAD) software for producing architectural, engineering, and construction drawings. This program will teach the core topics required for preparing professional 2D drawings using AutoCAD.

Get the most out of AutoCAD by learning to navigate the workspace and use essential drawing, editing, and viewing tools. Get creative by organizing objects with layers and inserting reusable blocks, then bring your designs to life with text, hatching, and dimensions. Take your skills to the next level by working with constraints, advanced blocks, and custom templates. Learn to command powerful tools like zoom commands, external references, QuickCalc, and dimensioning techniques to create professional, polished 2D designs.

Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your skills, this course will give you the confidence to design with precision and efficiency. You will even complete a hands-on project in this program that can be used as a foundation for your portfolio.
