Twelve Days of CADD Care | Day Ten: Our favorite features of CADD Community

December 14th, 2023

On the tenth day of CADD Care, the CADD team gave to me… CADD Community!

It wouldn't be a Twelve Days of CADD Care without a post about CADD Community! It’s one of our favorites – because it's the gift that keeps on giving!


The CADD Community is our 24/7 online portal, powered by Global eTraining, that provides members with exclusive access to valuable industry resources including content packs, videos, apps, interactive courses, and whitepapers. It was designed by industry experts and built especially to help our clients use their software more efficiently.
