Futures: Advanced Working Drawings Through AutoCAD for High Schoolers

High school students will sharpen their AutoCAD skills by taking on a simulated real-world project using the popular design and drafting software. Replicate the complete process that professionals use to create a set of working drawings for a construction project. High school students should have strong basic AutoCAD skills so that we can focus on the production aspects of assembling and detailing a set of working documents. We will cover technical aspects of AutoCAD, including file referencing, paper/model space and the relational aspects of drawing files.

Note: This course is only open to high school students.
