GETTING STARTED WITH AUTOCAD 2009 MANUALS

When you attend the course you should be familiar with the layout of AutoCAD in general and such things as the Ribbon, toolbars, tool palettes, the Design Center, the Layer Properties Manager and the Properties palette, etc. The electrical engineer thought this was the smartest way to go.

As a matter of fact I'm training one of our electricians on AutoCAD LT after which we will then send him for a three day training class on ACADE. ASCENT makes many of the training guides for AutoDESK products and happens to be the company whose book was used during my three day course.Д«TW.you said you were 'new to AutoCAD.' How new? Most courses that deal with AutoCAD vertical products like Electrical usually require a working knowledge of plain AutoCAD.

You can find one of the best by following the link below. If you can't find a training course for ACADE or your company just won't foot the bill then the alternative is to buy a good book. You are not being constantly interrupted by coworkers.

You receive and get to keep training material like manuals and CDs. You get to ask questions of someone who is intimately familiar with the program. Other advantages to attending a training class are. In some cases you do NOT want to use the Move command but the 'Scoot' command instead. The database is very important when it comes to creating reports so you don't want to go messing it up. If you use ordinary AutoCAD commands to do some tasks, rather than the built in ACADE commands, you LOSE that connectivity and have crippled the database. Everything is connected in one way or another. It is very important that you understand the power of ACADE rests in the database it builds in the background off your drawing. I attended a three day course and it was well worth the cost. My advice would be to contact your local authorized AutoDESK reseller (probably the same company you purchased the program from) and ask if they will be running any training courses for AutoCAD Electrical.
