Course overview

AutoCAD® Level 2 Intermediate course is designed for those using AutoCAD or AutoCAD LT® with a Windows operating system. This learning guide is not designed for the AutoCAD for Mac software. _ Our AutoCAD Level 2 Intermediate course continues on from the topics covered in the AutoCAD Level 1 Essentials course. Level 2 covers more sophisticated techniques that extend your mastery of the software. For example, here you go beyond the basic skill of using a template to understand the process of setting up a template, creating annotation styles, and how to work with external references. _ 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. • Attaching External References.
