Work Samples

Here are a few examples of the kind of work you can expect to be able to create after completing this AutoCAD course. Click the thumbnails to see more.

Working with Selections

You will learn how to create accurate selections so that you can isolate a subject from the background.

Adjustment Layers

Instead of applying an adjustment to the entire image, you will learn how to do this selectively by using adjustment layers.

Retouching Skin

One of the most common uses of Photoshop is Skin Retouching. You will learn the best practices to ensure your image looks natural.

Working with Layers

Layers allow you to create complex compositions with endless possibilities. You will learn the ins and outs of how layers work.

Advanced Selections

Creating accurate selections mean that you can remove any background. Learn how to create perfect selections around hair and more.

Typography

Text is a crucial element in any design. Learn the foundations of typography and create a professional looking poster.

What's included?

Together with this course, you also get the following benefits at no extra cost.

Course Certification

At the end of your AutoCAD training, you will receive a certificate of completion which you can use to demonstrate your competence in using Autodesk AutoCAD. Your certificate will be approved by one of our Autodesk Certified Instructors

Lifetime Support

After your AutoCAD training, you will have access to our technical email and phone support for a lifetime (yes, you read that right). You can contact us with any technical questions related to what you have learned on your AutoCAD course.

Course Notes

As well as the training files you create during the course, you will also be given exercise files and notes that you can take away with you. Because, let’s admit, nobody enjoys going through a software manual that is hundreds of pages long.

Training Videos

After attending a classroom or online AutoCAD training course, you will have free access to our extensive online training video library for seven days. All of our online training videos are produced by our instructors in partnership with digidemy.com

Free Class Retake

Once you complete your AutoCAD course, you can come back and attend the same training session for free within 24 months. This is especially useful to fill the gaps in your knowledge or if you would just like to refresh your skills and get a little more practice.

Course Recording

During the course, you will be able to record the training sessions so you can refer to it whenever you need to in the future. These recordings will be yours to keep forever and they will be an invaluable resource for your continued learning after the training.

As well as the certificate of completion that you will get at the end of your course, you will also have the option to take the official Autodesk Certified User (ACU) exam for an additional fee of £100. The ACU is the industry-recognised certification which proves that you have the in-demand and job-ready skills!

FAQ

Couldn’t find the answer to you question? These might help.

Where does the classroom training take place?

Our address is: 3 Laybourne House, Admirals Way, London, E14 9UH.

We are located only a couple of minutes’ walk from both the Canary Wharf (Jubilee Line) and the South Quay DLR Stations.

What time does the course start / finish?

The course starts at 10am and runs until 4pm with a lunch break and a couple of short coffee breaks throughout the day.

How big are the classes?

We usually have between 4-6 students per class. So it is a very small group, which means you get a lot of individual help and attention.

What's the booking procedure?

When you decide which course and dates you would like to attend, you simply fill the contact form on this page, or get in touch with us by using the chat button. Upon receiving your request, we will raise an invoice and send it to you for payment.

Once we receive the payment, your place on the course gets confirmed and you receive the joining instructions.

When do I need to make the payment?

Payment needs to be made at least 10 days prior to the first day of your course. Until we receive your payment, your place on the course is not confirmed and if the course gets fully booked, we might ask you to wait until the next available date.

How can I pay for my course?

You can pay for your training course via BACS (direct bank transfer), by using any credit or debit card including VISA, Mastercard or AMEX. You can also pay by using PayPal.

Do I need to bring anything with me?

We provide the workstations, notepads, light snacks, biscuits, coffee, tea and chocolate (lots of it!) during the course, so you don’t need to bring anything along.

Can I use my own laptop on the training?

If you feel more comfortable using your own computer, you certainly can. Just make sure you let us know ahead of the course, so we can prepare a workstation for you to connect your laptop.

Can I use my own files during the course?

If you are attending a public scheduled training course with other students, then you would be following a pre-determined outline. This is to ensure that everyone benefits from the training. However, if you would like to use your own files during the course (perhaps you are working on a project that you’d like to use as a case study), check out our Tailored Training page.

How does the online training work?

Overview: Instead of travelling to our London studios, you can join the course remotely as an online student. You will be joining a classroom training session which takes place at one of our training centres with real instructors and students without leaving your home or office. You will have the opportunity to interact with your instructors during the live sessions, ask questions, follow demonstrations, hear and see your fellow students just like you would if you were physically here. It’s exactly like being in a classroom, without the cost of travel and accommodation. Plus the cost of the online training is lower than the traditional classroom training courses.

The platform: Our online courses run either on Zoom or Teams. During the training hours, you need to be in front of your computer and follow your instructor’s monitor as the demonstrations take place. You will then practice what you’ve learned on your own computer. Along the way, you will be able to interact with your instructor, ask questions as well as take part in discussions during the training. If you get stuck, your instructor can take control of your mouse and show you the right way of completing a specific task.

Prerequisites: Almost all modern computers nowadays will have sufficient technology for the live training courses. However, to ensure you get the most out of your online training experience, there are a few things to keep in mind. In order to attend one of the InDesign courses as an online student, you need to have a decent broadband connection (a connection that’s good enough for a traditional HD video call will suffice). You will also need a pair of headphones or speakers as well as a microphone. Although not compulsory, you are advised to have a dual-monitor setup. Ideally, you would be following your instructor from one monitor and use the other monitor to practice the tools you are taught. As an alternative, you can use a single monitor and switch between the online session and your software. You will need to have either the full version of the software you are learning or we can send you a link to download a free trial for a limited period.

Can I postpone my booking to another date?

Yes – as long as you give us 10 days’ notice, you can postpone your course to another date without any charges. For full details on cancelation and postponing, please refer to our T&Cs.
