Interface & Basic Drafting (2D)

Introduction to CAD: Understanding the workspace, coordinate systems (Absolute, Relative, Polar), and units.
Draw Commands: Mastering Lines, Circles, Arcs, Polylines, and Rectangles.
Modify Tools: Essential editing using Move, Copy, Rotate, Mirror, Scale, and Trim/Extend.
Precision Tools: Using Object Snaps (OSNAP) and Ortho mode for perfect accuracy.

Layers & Properties: Managing complex drawings using layer states, line types, and colors.
Annotation & Text: Creating professional text styles and multi-line notes.
Dimensioning: Linear, Aligned, Radial, and Angular dimensions; creating custom Dimension Styles.
Blocks & Groups: Creating reusable symbols (doors, windows, nuts/bolts) and using the Design Center.
Hatching & Gradients: Adding textures and patterns to floor plans or sections.

- Parametric Constraints: Geometric and Dimensional constraints for smart drawings.
- External References (Xrefs): Managing collaborative projects and large-scale drawings.
- Layouts & Viewports: Setting up paper space, scale management, and title blocks.
- Plotting & Publishing: Exporting to PDF, DWG, and high-quality print formats.

3D Workspace: Navigating the Z-axis, UCS (User Coordinate System), and 3D Viewports.
Solid Modeling: Creating 3D shapes using Extrude, Revolve, Sweep, and Loft.
Boolean Operations: Combining or subtracting shapes using Union, Subtract, and Intersect.
Editing 3D Solids: Filleting edges, shelling, and face editing.

Materials & Textures: Applying realistic finishes (Wood, Metal, Glass, Concrete).
Lighting: Adding Point, Spot, and Distant lights to a scene.
Camera Setup: Creating perspective views and walk-throughs.
Rendering: Generating high-resolution images of the 3D model for client presentations.
