Virtual Classroom Training - Civil 3D Essentials Training Course

[product-detail]

Our training task group has been working hard on optimising our current training courses for remote delivery. The technology that we use to deliver these courses has been specifically designed to ensure that the learning experience is just as effective as if you are in one of our training centres. The same experienced instructors that deliver our classroom courses deliver our virtual ones too. We limit the number of attendees to eight so that each one receives the right amount of individual support and attention. We are even able to observe how each attendee is progressing with the exercises we set them and steer them in the right direction when they need our help.

What do you get?
 

• An instructor led training course, delivered across the web, packed with interactive demonstrations, hands-on exercises and plenty of time to ask questions.
• 3 months post course technical support.

You will require an internet connection and a web browser to connect to our online courses. 

No previous CAD experience is necessary. However, drafting, design or engineering experience would be an advantage.

This course is designed to teach the essential elements of AutoCAD Civil 3D to new users.

Delegates should have a working knowledge of AutoCAD.It is also recommended that delegates have a working knowledge of Microsoft Windows
