What You'll Learn

The AutoCAD (2D & 3D) program at Al-Nafi College of Technology teaches you professional computer-aided drafting for architecture, construction, and engineering support roles. You will create accurate floor plans, elevations, sections, and introductory 3D models — with print-ready layouts for workplace and freelance use.


At the End of This Program, You Will Be Able To:

  • Use AutoCAD confidently — navigate the interface, tools, layers, and drawing settings.
  • Create precise 2D drawings — lines, polylines, arcs, hatch, text, and dimensions.
  • Build architectural plans — floor plans, elevations, sections, and site layouts.
  • Manage layers & blocks — organize drawings with standards used in professional offices.
  • Prepare printable sheets — layouts, viewports, title blocks, and PDF/DWG export.
  • Model basic 3D objects — extrude, press-pull, solids, and simple 3D views.
  • Deliver client-ready work — complete a final drafting project for your portfolio.
