Description
AutoCAD is a widely used software for drafting and designing. It is really easy to learn and with practice, you can easily master the software and confidently make 2D drawings using this software. You have options for doing 3D in AutoCAD also but this course will deal with only the 2D part.Why should you take this course:This course has been designed in such a way that any beginner can easily learn and people who know the software can also easily refresh using this course. This course is not Industry specific and covers all the essential basics to start drawing. Another highlight is that the course does not teach a specific version of AutoCAD. Instead it focuses on the commands which are used throughout all the versions of AutoCAD. Changes across the versions are mentioned wherever it is needed.This course is also KEYBOARD ORIENTED. This means that you will be learning how to use AutoCAD by typing in commands as opposed to using the menu and the ribbons.In this course, we will be looking into some of the commands of AutoCAD by working on a project simultaneously. Additional Practice projects and assignments have also been included to try out the software by yourself.Welcome to Getting Started with AutoCAD!
