The most fantastic feature of
our training is that we tailor it to benefit each student’s
individual AutoCAD work environment. In so doing, our students
are assured that they not only learn basic AutoCAD
fundamentals, but that they will also know how to apply this
new knowledge to their specific work environments. Each
student is encouraged to bring in actual work problems for
their class projects. The more, the better!
Attend five hours per week for 20 weeks to total 80 hours
of lecture/workshop training. Weekly worksite implementation
projects hone your skills and additional one-on-one
instruction ensures all your questions get answered! Enrollment is limited
in all PDC courses.

Each AutoCAD participant must have a computer loaded with
the appropriate software (Rel. 2000i or higher, or LT) dedicated
to his/her use at work.

Did you know?
Many famous people have equated their success with hard
work and the ability to immerse themselves in their projects.
For example, Michelangelo said: "If people know how hard
I work to get my mastery, it wouldn't seem so wonderful at
all." Thomas Carlyle: "Genius is the capacity for
taking infinite pains." And Alexander Hamilton: "All
the genius I may have is merely the fruit of thought and labor."
("For Achievers Only," The Manager's Intelligence
Report, 2000)
May we help make your hard work
a little easier with hands-on, state-funded training customized
to meet your specific needs?
