What is AutoCAD?
AutoCAD is one of the leading software packages developed for producing two and three dimensional Computer Aided Designs. AutoCAD is designed to produce accurate drawing with ease, offering the user flexibility to transform and present drawings instantaneously. We deliver our course using AutoCAD 2010. (We can also train using AutoCAD LT 2002 or 2008 if requested).
