02
Is the AutoCAD 2D Basics and Intermediate course suitable for complete beginners?
Yes. This course is designed for participants with zero or minimal knowledge of AutoCAD. The training begins with the fundamentals of the AutoCAD drawing environment and gradually introduces essential drawing and editing commands before progressing to intermediate topics such as title blocks and layout management. No previous AutoCAD experience is required.
03
What is the difference between AutoCAD 2D Basics from Zero and AutoCAD 2D Basics and Intermediate?
AutoCAD 2D Basics from Zero is a 2-day programme focusing on fundamental drawing and editing techniques, including layers, object modification, dimensioning, annotations and hatching.
AutoCAD 2D Basics and Intermediate is a 3-day programme that includes all eight foundational modules from the 2-day Basics course, plus an additional day covering drawing revision objects, boundaries, regions, title blocks, layouts and viewports. The 3-day programme is suitable for participants who want to learn both basic drafting techniques and intermediate drawing organisation skills.

What will I learn about title blocks and drawing layouts during the course?
Day 3 introduces the process of creating title blocks from scratch and working with AutoCAD drawing layouts. Participants will learn how to modify layouts, use page setups and create layout viewports. These skills help organise technical drawings into consistent formats and support the development of standardised drawing templates for workplace use.
05
What is the difference between AutoCAD 2D Basics and Intermediate and AutoCAD 2D Advanced?
AutoCAD 2D Basics and Intermediate is designed for beginners who want to learn essential drawing techniques and progress to introductory intermediate topics such as title blocks and layouts.
AutoCAD 2D Advanced is a separate programme intended for participants who already have a solid understanding of AutoCAD 2D Basics. It covers more advanced drafting features, including dynamic blocks, isometric drawings, tables, Design Centre tools and advanced layout management, as described on the CAD Training Centre website.
