AUTOCAD UPDATE

This course introduces the new features of AutoCAD to users of previous AutoCAD versions. Cumulatively, these changes add up to an extensive list. In order to present the material coherently within this course, we have focused on the major and most important new features, and have not attempted to cover every change in detail.

AUTOCAD LEVEL I

Upon completion of AutoCAD® Level 1, the student will be able to create a basic 2D drawing using drawing and editing tools, organize drawing objects on layers, add text and basic dimensions, and prepare to plot. For maximum flexibility, the course is divided into two parts, the first presenting essential skills, the second covering more sophisticated techniques for drawing setup and productivity. The two parts combined fulfill the requirements for AutoCAD Level 1.

AUTOCAD LEVEL II

For students comfortable with the basics of creating an AutoCAD® drawing, as taught in AutoCAD Level 1. This course focuses on: using efficiency tools including grips and tool palettes, drawing with complex objects including polylines, regions and advanced text objects, defining blocks and attributes, using external reference files and image files, using layouts and advanced plotting features, creating sheet sets, and enhancing productivity with simple customization of AutoCAD.

3D STUDIO VIZ LEVEL I

This course introduces the user to the VIZ interface and it covers the basics of modeling, lighting, cameras, animation, materials editing and mapping, along with a few more advanced concepts. Students will be able to use the VIZ software to design conceptual models and create final renderings and animation of detailed architectural buildings.

AUTOCAD ARCHITECTURE LEVEL I & II

AutoCAD Architecture is “AutoCAD optimized for architecture.” In addition to all the standard AutoCAD tools, it offers a host of features to greatly increase the speed and efficiency of architectural drawings. The software is designed to work from first concept (conceptual design or mass model) all the way through to design development, working drawings, and facility maintenance.

To meet the needs of different students, we have divided our training materials for this application into two courses. AutoCAD Architecture 2008 Fundamentals focuses on the design development and construction documentation features of AutoCAD Architecture—the basic tools that the majority of students will need in their work. AutoCAD Architecture 2008 Advanced focuses on conceptual design in the sense of massing studies and space planning, as well as several more advanced features for greater control over the program.

AUTOCAD MEP LEVEL I

Upon completion of this course you will be able to create Mechanical and HVAC systems, learn to check interferences, customize part catalogues, and annotate a mechanical system. You will be able to create electrical systems by adding devices, wiring conduits and cable trays. You will learn to work with schematic drawings, manage styles, layer keys, and part catalogues

REVIT ARCHITECTURE LEVEL I

Revit Architecture is a powerful parametric 3D modeling program for designing buildings. Since building projects themselves tend to be extremely complex, Revit is necessarily a complex program. The objective of this Level 1 course is to enable students to create full 3D architectural project models and set them up in working drawings. The class focuses on basic tools that the majority of users will need to work with Revit.

REVIT ARCHITECTURE LEVEL II

This course is intended for students who have completed Revit Architecture Fundamentals training and are ready to explore more advanced features in the software. Knowledge of basic techniques is assumed, such as creating walls, roofs, and other objects; copying and moving objects; creating and working with views; etc.

AUTODESK INVENTOR INTRODUCTION TO MODELING

The Autodesk Inventor 2008 Introduction to Modeling course instructs users in best usage approaches for parametric design philosophy through a hands-on, practice-intensive curriculum. Users acquire the knowledge needed to complete the process of designing models from conceptual sketching, through to solid modeling, assembly design, and drawing production

AUTODESK INVENTOR ADVANCED PART MODELING

Inventor 2008 Advanced Part Modeling builds on the skills acquired in the Inventor Introduction to Solid Modeling course to take students to a higher level of productivity designing part models in Inventor.
This course considers various approaches to part design and emphasizes useful strategies. Specific advanced part modeling techniques covered include: advanced lofts, advanced sweeps, coils, and surface modeling. Additional material aimed at increasing efficiency is also included: iFeatures for frequently needed design elements, iParts for similar designs, translation options for importing data, engineering notebook for communicating information, etc.
The course also covers creating revision and hole tables as well as custom sketches symbols which can all be added to a drawing. With an understanding of these tools, students can begin to streamline the design and documentation process.

AUTODESK INVENTOR ADVANCED ASSEMBLY MODELING

Inventor 2008 Advanced Assembly Modeling builds on the skills acquired in the Inventor Introduction to Solid Modeling and Advanced Part Modeling courses to take students to a higher level of productivity creating and working with assemblies in Inventor.In this course, we begin by discussing the concept of Top-Down Design for assembly creation. Planning the assembly using the top-down design approach helps create clean, reusable geometry that interacts as expected with the rest of the assembly. Throughout the course you will be taught how various Inventor tools can be used to achieve Top-Down Design practices in your assemblies. Other advanced assembly topics include Positional and Level of Detail Representations, iMates and iAssemblies, Frame Generator, Design Accelerator and file management techniques that aim to help you become more efficient when working with assemblies.

Accurately communicating a design to all levels of a design team is important. A chapter has been included on Inventor Studio to teach you how to render and animate realistic images. In addition you will learn about how to accurately use the assembly bill of material functionality.
