What Certificate/Statements will l receive after completing the course? You will receive a statement of attainment for the units you have completed and a Certificate of Participation for the skill set you complete i.e. 2D Fundamentals, Advanced 2D and 3D Modelling. Does the course focus on design techniques for a particular discipline/ profession? No. The course does not focus on design techniques for any particular discipline/profession it focuses on learning how to use the software not design. What types of drawings do you draw? Most drawings are mechanical however other types of drawings included are a house plan, circuit, structural and sheet metal layouts. The drawing type is not important though as the course focuses on learning how to use the software not on design. Is the course for the MAC AutoCAD version? No. It is for the PC (windows) version of AutoCAD. MAC and PC versions are very different. How do l access all the learning material? i.e. videos, drawings, outlines, etc. You access the course through moodle which is an e-learning software platform. After enrolling you will be contacted and explained how to access moodle i.e. Logon and Password. Will l complete Certificate IV in Engineering Drafting (MEM40412) if enrolled in the full AutoCAD online course? No. If enrolled in the full AutoCAD online course you will complete four units out of the Certificate IV in Engineering Drafting this is not the all the units required to complete the course.
