This course is designed for a Windows OS. You will need the Autodesk Civil 3D and Autodesk InfraWorks software, along with a high-speed internet connection. Dual monitors are recommended.
**Students registering for this course may be eligible for free access to Autodesk software for a one-year period-please contact our office for details.
Autodesk On-Demand Learner Profiles
Autodesk On-Demand is a self-study training solution that was designed for two types of learners. First, Autodesk On-Demand is a great fit for experienced professionals who have some experience with Autodesk and don't need a traditional classes to upgrade their existing skills. They can pick and choose topics to make the most effective use of their time. Second, Autodesk On-Demand is perfect for highly-motivated individuals who are new to Autodesk and need to space their learning over a period of weeks or months. These learners can take their time and repeat sections as needed until they master the new concepts.
Prerequisites
Previous experience with AutoCAD software or AutoCAD-based products, a sound understanding and knowledge of civil engineering terminology, and a basic understanding of the surveying profession is recommended.
