The objective of AutoCAD Basics (2 days) is to enable students to create a basic 2D drawing in AutoCAD. Even at this fundamental level, AutoCAD is one of the most sophisticated computer applications that you are likely to encounter. AutoCAD Basics (2 days) covers the essential core topics for working with AutoCAD. The teaching strategy is to start with a few basic tools that enable the student to create and edit a simple drawing, and then continue to develop those tools. More advanced tools are introduced 

throughout the course. Not every command or option is covered, because the intent is to show the most essential tools and concepts
