Course Brief
AutoCAD 2D & 3D Architecture Professional Course
Master the art of architectural drafting and design with our AutoCAD 2D & 3D Professional Course. Tailored for beginners and aspiring professionals alike, this course offers a deep dive into one of the industry's most essential tools—AutoCAD.
You’ll begin by navigating the user interface and mastering essential drawing tools. As you progress, you'll learn to modify objects with precision, manage layers, create dynamic blocks, and work efficiently with layouts and references. The course then guides you into the world of 3D modeling, teaching you how to create and visualize complex structures, apply materials, and render lifelike designs.
We’ll also explore automation, customization through AutoLISP, and introduce freelancing platforms like Fiverr and Upwork—preparing you not only for employment but also independent work.
By course end, you’ll complete a professional project and build a portfolio that sets you apart as a skilled AutoCAD Operator, CAD Designer, or Freelance CAD Specialist.
