AutoCAD 2009 Training DVD Info

Title Information.

AutoCAD 2009 sports cutting-edge features and a brand new interface, making it the perfect opportunity for those with no prior drafting experience to learn AutoCAD from the ground up. In AutoCAD 2009 Essential Training, Jeff Bartels gives a thorough explanation of the interface and explains the commands in the same order they would be encountered in a typical workflow. He discusses each concept using simple line work, and then applies it to a real-world example. The course is "industry neutral," meaning the skills and techniques can be applied to any drafting discipline: architectural, mechanical, civil, or design. Example files accompany the course. .

Customer Comments

These classes deliver at a depth even well-written books cannot convey; and the ability to review your work is very valuable. Also, topics like PERL and Ruby are pleasant and unexpected additions (I have a math/physics background). I am now a subscriber, and will probably remain so.
