Mastering AutoCAD
AutoCAD is a powerful platform for 2D drafting and 3D design, enabling professionals to automate their design tasks and focus on creativity instead of technical complexity. Used by architects, engineers, and designers, AutoCAD allows users to create, view, manage, plot, and share detailed, information-rich drawings efficiently and precisely. This course package combines three core levels—Essentials, Beyond the Basics, and 3D Drawing & Modeling—offering a complete skillset for mastering AutoCAD 2020 from beginner to professional level.
