AutoCAD LT 2007 Level 1
AutoCAD Training Overview

The objective of AutoCAD LT 2007 Level 1 is to enable students to create a basic 2D drawing in AutoCAD LT. Even though it does not include some of the high-end features of the full AutoCAD program, AutoCAD LT is one of the most sophisticated computer applications that students are likely to encounter. Learning to use it is therefore not a trivial undertaking. To make the process easier and provide flexibility for instructors and students, the course is divided into two parts that can be taken independently.

AutoCAD LT 2007 Level 1 Essentials (3 days) covers the indispensable core topics for working with AutoCAD LT. The teaching strategy is to start with a few basic tools that will enable the student to create and edit a simple drawing. We then continue to develop those tools, as well as introducing more advanced tools throughout the course. Not every command or option is covered, because the intent is to show the most essential tools and concepts.

AutoCAD Training Topics

Topics in the three-day course include:

  • understanding the AutoCAD LT workspace and user interface
  • using basic drawing, editing, and viewing tools
  • organizing drawing objects on layers
  • inserting reusable symbols (blocks) and manipulating Dynamic Blocks
  • preparing a layout to be plotted
  • adding text, hatching, and dimensions
  • saving drawings and saving as previous AutoCAD LT versions

AutoCAD LT 2007 Level 1 Beyond the Basics (two days) continues with more sophisticated techniques that will extend the student’s mastery of the program. For example, in this course we go beyond the basic skill of inserting a block to learn how to create blocks, and beyond the basic skill of using a template to understand the process of setting up a template.

Topics in the two-day course include:

  • using more advanced editing and construction techniques
  • creating local and global blocks
  • setting up layers, styles, and templates
