AutoCAD Essentials is an essential level of hands-on training which is designed for new users with no or little experience in using CAD software.

To attend no previous CAD, experience is required but any traditional manual design understating and or drawing experience would be an advantage. It is expected that a delegate must have some experience in using computers in Windows and Internet environments.

The main objective of this course is to teach users the basic commands and features of the software which are necessary to produce 2D drawings and design layouts in AutoCAD or AutoCAD LT environment.

In this course, you will learn the use of 2D commands, basic features and techniques for creating, editing, dimensioning, annotating and printing accurate AutoCAD drawings efficiently using hands-on basic exercises.

This AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT Essentials covers the essential core topics for working with the AutoCAD software. The teaching strategy is to start with a few basic tools that enable the student to create and edit a simple drawing, and then continue to develop those tools. More advanced tools are also introduced throughout the training guide. Not every command or option is covered, because the intent is to show the most essential tools and concepts, such as:

• Understanding the AutoCAD workspace and user interface.
• Using basic drawing, editing, and viewing tools.
• Organizing drawing objects on layers.
• Inserting reusable symbols (blocks).
• Preparing a layout to be plotted.
• Adding text, hatching, and dimensions.
