Architecture & Environmental Design
Skills Certificate - Computer Aided Drafting
Drafters now use computer-aided drafting (CAD) systems to prepare architectural renditions, drawings and plans. These systems employ computer workstations to create digital drawings, which are stored electronically so that revisions or duplications can be made easily. CAD systems also permit drafters to easily and quickly prepare variations of a design. The CAD Skills Certificate is directed at professional and students in the construction fields who need to update their skills to include CAD Technology. Upon successfully completion of this program, students will have the skills necessary to operate several types of Computer Aided Design software.
