About this Course

The AutoCAD/AutoCAD LT training during the AutoCAD/AutoCAD LT Beyond the Basics course continues on from the topics covered in the AutoCAD®/AutoCAD LT® Essentials training course. It covers more sophisticated techniques that extend your mastery of the program. For example, here you go beyond the basic skill of inserting a block to learning how to create blocks, and beyond the basic skill of using a template to understand the process of setting up a template.

You learn skills such as:

• Using more advanced editing and construction techniques.
  
• Adding parametric constraints to objects.
  
• Creating local and global blocks.
  
• Setting up layers, styles, and templates.
  
• Using advanced plotting and publishing options.
  

This AutoCAD/AutoCAD LT training course is designed for those using AutoCAD® or AutoCAD LT® software with a Windows operating system. This training course is not designed for the AutoCAD for Mac software. This training course is not recommended for users that have completed the AutoCAD®/AutoCAD LT® Fundamentals training course as Beyond the Basics contains the same content.
