AutoCAD 2D course — FAQ

What is AutoCAD 2D used for?

AutoCAD 2D is used to prepare accurate technical drawings such as building plans, elevations, interior layouts, machine part drawings, electrical layouts and survey maps in civil, mechanical, electrical and many other fields.

Can I learn AutoCAD without an engineering background?

Yes. Anyone with basic computer skills can learn AutoCAD 2D. The course begins with the interface and simple drawing commands, and practice drawings are chosen to suit your field.

How long is the AutoCAD 2D course?

The AutoCAD 2D course is 30 hours long, covering drawing, editing, annotation, blocks, layouts and plotting.

Is AutoCAD training available online?

You can choose either: a CADD centre classroom or live online AutoCAD 2D classes, where you draft field-specific practice drawings on your PC while the trainer watches your command line.

Do I get a certificate after AutoCAD 2D?

Yes. The AutoCAD 2D certificate from CADD Training Centre is easy to check: a design office can scan its QR code or type the code into the online verification page.

What jobs can I get after learning AutoCAD?

AutoCAD skills lead to roles such as CAD draughtsman, AutoCAD operator, junior design engineer and drafting technician in construction, interior, manufacturing and electrical firms. Placement support is provided.

Should I learn AutoCAD 2D before 3D?

Yes. 2D drafting builds the command and precision skills that 3D modelling depends on, so AutoCAD 2D is the recommended first step before AutoCAD 3D or Revit.
