Projects-based CAD Training in AutoCAD for Built Environment Professionals (Comprehensive)

During the AutoCAD Training Course, engineers will be introduced to a 2D isometric drawing as a bridge towards visualizing and drafting in 3D using the AutoCAD software. WSQ, SS funded

Course Overview

This course will impart the necessary knowledge and skills for aspiring and existing Built Environment professionals to create and modify technical drawings in AutoCAD. Learners will be taken through the basic operation and interface of AutoCAD, and will learn skills to draft and modify in 2D and 3D, create dimension, annotation and texts.

Tips and tricks will also be shared during the class for learners to create drawings and models more efficiently. Learners will be guided in a step-by-step process with bite-size topics to ease the learning curve. This will be coupled with hands-on practice, guided by a qualified instructor to build familiarity on the skills.
