The AutoCAD Advanced Online Course is perfect for professionals aiming to enhance their Computer-Aided Design (CAD) skills. This course provides in-depth training in advanced AutoCAD techniques, preparing you for complex design projects.

This course aims to introduce the student to advanced techniques used when operating AutoCAD to produce technical drawings to a professional level. On completion of the course students will be able to: Create customised menus, toolbars and ribbons. Reset the drawing options to reconfigure the CAD environment. Work with Tool Palettes and the Design Centre to manage style content. Use parametric constraints and dimensions to control design intent. Create dynamic blocks to utilise the powerful variation tools. Create sheet sets and publish multiple drawings using advanced transmittal and printing tools. Use advanced CAD standard tools to manage conformity with company standards. Extract detailed information from drawing details.

The primary objective of this Advanced-level course is to build on the concepts of the AutoCAD LT/2D Essentials content to improve the trainee’s drawing and editing efficiency and CAD management skills. This course considers international drawing standards and examines tools used in implementing them. Below is a detailed look at some of the most important topics covered. For those looking to bridge the gap between beginner and advanced levels, our AutoCAD intermediate course can help.

• Advanced Workspace Customization: Participants will learn to create a custom workspace, including customised menus, toolbars, and ribbons. They will also configure AutoCAD option settings and manage content using user tool palettes and the Design Center.
• Parametric Constraints and Dynamic Blocks: This module covers creating and managing dynamic blocks, using parametric constraints to control design intent, and applying geometric and dimensional constraints to ensure precision in drawings.
• Sheet Sets and Document Transmittal: Students will master creating and managing sheet sets, batch plotting, and advanced document publishing techniques. This includes managing sheet sets efficiently for large projects.
• Advanced Productivity Tools: The course will teach advanced use of CAD standards tools, layer translation, data extraction, and express tools. Customisation for client-specific advanced tool usage will also be explored.
• Comprehensive Evaluation and Practical Application: Participants will engage in hands-on practical exercises throughout the course, culminating in a comprehensive evaluation to ensure mastery of advanced AutoCAD techniques and tools.
