AutoCAD
Master the industry-standard CAD software to create precise 2D drawings and 3D designs — the essential skill for architecture, engineering and design.
Overview
AutoCAD is the world's most widely used computer-aided design (CAD) software — the tool architects, engineers and designers rely on to bring ideas to life. This course takes you from the basics to producing precise, professional drawings and designs.
Through hands-on practice, you'll learn to draft accurately, work efficiently with layers and blocks, annotate and dimension your work, and prepare drawings for printing — finishing with real, portfolio projects.
What you'll learn
- The AutoCAD interface and navigation
- Precise 2D drafting and drawing tools
- Layers, blocks and reusable content
- Dimensioning and professional annotation
- Layouts, printing and plotting
- The fundamentals of 3D modelling
