Overview
This bootcamp includes our beginner and intermediate classes with a 10% discount. Starting with the beginner AutoCAD class, you’ll learn basic drawing and modifying techniques for drafting and technical drawing, using AutoCAD to create drawings that can be used to build real mechanical and architectural objects. In the intermediate class, you will learn advanced layering, styling, and blocking techniques to create quality templates and layouts for printing. You will start with basic tools to create and edit a simple drawing, and then continue developing those tools. More advanced tools will be introduced throughout the course.
Note: This course is designed for PC users, and our in-person classes are PC-only. Mac users may attend online, but should be aware that the Mac AutoCAD graphic interface differs from the PC version, which is what the instructor uses and what the class focuses on.
