Overview

This AutoCAD course introduces you to the world’s most widely used CAD (Computer‑Aided Design) software for engineering, architecture, interior design, mechanical drafting, and construction. You will learn to create precise 2D technical drawings, modify and manage complex designs, and explore foundational 3D modeling workflows. The course includes hands‑on projects that help you apply your knowledge to real‑world drafting and design scenarios.

You’ll Learn

How to use the AutoCAD interface, workspaces, menus, and navigation tools.

Techniques for creating accurate 2D drawings using essential command tools.

Editing and organizing drawings using layers, properties, and precision tools.

How to add annotations, dimensions, text, and hatches to technical drawings.

Understanding blocks, symbols, templates, and reusable design components.

Introduction to 3D modeling basics and transitioning from 2D to 3D design.

Techniques for layout, plotting, printing, and preparing drawings for presentation.
