    An introduction to AutoCAD

    Friday 26th April 10am - 12pm 
    Online 

    AutoCAD is arguably the world’s most popular CAD software. In this session we’ll look at using the programme in a production environment, dealing with importing drawings into AutoCAD including from other programmes, using manufacturers drawings, and extracting information from drawings.

    There will also be an opportunity to ask questions and look at specific issues (time allowing)



    About David
