AutoCAD Level 1
Overview
TCCIT Solutions provides high quality, affordably priced, training classes in AutoCAD. With experienced instructors and a convenient midtown NYC location, we offer AutoCAD courses for the corporate community. TCCIT Solutions offers group classes and private tutoring to beginner and more advanced corporate clients in AutoCAD. We offer onsite training or classes at our facility on 34th Street and Madison in New York City.
Upon completion of AutoCAD 2010 Level 1, the student will be able to create a basic 2D drawing using drawing and editing tools, organize drawing objects on layers, add text and basic dimensions, and prepare to plot. For maximum flexibility, the course is divided into two parts, the first presenting essential skills, the second covering more sophisticated techniques for drawing setup and productivity. The two parts combined fulfill the requirements for AutoCAD Level 1.
Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
- understanding the AutoCAD workspace and user interface
- using basic drawing, editing, and viewing tools
- organizing drawing objects on layers
- inserting reuseable symbols (blocks)
- preparing a layout to be plotted
- adding text, hatching, and dimensions
- using more advanced editing and construction techniques
- creating local and global blocks
- setting up layers, styles, and templates
Prerequisite:
Students should have a basic understanding of Windows, including how to use files and folders.
