Autodesk AutoCAD - Advanced level 2

Educational goals

The aim of the training is to extend the participants’ skills in the field of advanced 2D drawing techniques, work automation, effective project data management and the creation and presentation of 3D models. Participants will learn the tools and features of the program that will enable them to increase the efficiency, consistency and quality of project work.

Learning outcomes:
Participant can:

• create custom blocks with defined attributes and parameters;
• organize and effectively use block libraries;
• apply aligned hatchning to create complex fillings;
• associate drawing objects with external data;
• create advanced macros, save, edit and run them;
• personalize the user interface by creating its own toolbars and ribbon bars;
• use advanced techniques of working with databases in AutoCAD;
• create and manage their own data fields in the drawing;
• create solid 3D models using tools for pulling, rotating and joining;
• identify and remove errors, analyze and optimize work efficiency in AutoCAD.
