AutoCAD for 2D Drafting & Technical Drawings January 2025

Learning software programs at first could be very difficult for a lot of architecture students. As we transition from the manual drawing phase to the digital drawing phase, it’s important that every program is explained in a way that makes it easily understood.

In this course, you will learn the basics of drawing digitally using AutoCAD. The course aims to familiarize you with an efficient workflow that helps you save time when drawing digitally, and become comfortable with using the program.
