Learn to visualize your work. This program is designed for people working in or entering trades and professions where computer-aided drafting is used, including engineering, architecture, carpentry, surveying, facility planning, pattern drafting and interior design.

The Program

AutoCAD is a computer-aided design (CAD) program used in engineering, architecture, interior design and other fields requiring a sophisticated design and drafting tool. Camosun's industry-approved courses may be taken individually as stand-alone courses or combined to obtain a Certificate in AutoCAD Graphics. You'll learn from instructors with industry and teaching experience in small, hands-on classes.

The focus of this course is on using the AutoCAD software. The more background you have in other trade areas to combine with the AutoCAD skills they will learn, the more beneficial you will find the training program. Students may register on a course-by-course basis prior to applying to this program.

Located at our Interurban campus, the AutoCAD Graphics program is offered in the evening and on weekends, in order to accommodate working students' schedules.

To receive a confirmation of successful completion, you are required to attend a minimum of 75% of classes and complete all assignments. Most assignments can be completed during class time.

Each course may be taken on its own or you can complete the three required AutoCAD courses and a completion project in order to receive a Certificate in AutoCAD Graphics.
