Topics covered in this class provide attendees with a strong foundation for making AutoCAD® or AutoCAD LT® an effective and valued addition to their professional skill set. Devised for professionals who need to use AutoCAD or AutoCAD LT as a daily production tool, this class introduces students to the two-dimensional (2D) drafting environment and the techniques required to edit existing drawings as well as create new drawings from scratch. Students will learn how to take a drawing file from its initial setup, through creating and modifying simple and complex objects, to detailed page setup and final printing.
