Training:

Over the years I have taught at Rosenburg School in San Francisco for Adult reducation

where I not only taught but also created the curiculm for the classes

as well as having taught at Santa Rosa Junior College where I taught classes in

hand drafting up through 3d modeling and rendering.

I would often have students from other instructors come to me for assistance with their questions because

they knew I would strive to help them understand their AutoCAD questions and would usually know the answers.

I have former students and associates who still contact from over 10 years ago when their AutoCAD distributor cannot help them.

With AutoCAD constantly changing and adding new features every year,

with existing features being altered or simply hidden away

and with the shear volume of commands and options avaliable in AutoCAD,

drafters must always be looking for ways to increase or maintain their level of productivity.

In order to assist in this endeavor, I do one on one training and also group sessions in office to help

your firm with their productivity.

In working in a one on one basis I will come in and watch as you work and point out ideas for you to

be a more efficiant drafter, show you how to utilize commands that you either don't know about

or have forgotten and learn about your work flow and see where we can create custom routines

that will make you more productive by lowering the amount of steps you take to complete a task.

In addition I suggest folks on their own do what they can to learn how to be more productive

and also learn more about the software.

To that end I have included here a few tips, tricks, hidden features and just plain cool stuff

that many drafters might be interested in knowing in an effort to help build and maintain their proficiancy with AutoCAD.

Feel free to email me any comments, suggestions or your own personal tips for inclusion here and we'll be happy to add a link to your site in return!
