AutoCAD Training Overview
By leveraging the experience users gain in working with other 3D modeling software packages, this hands-on, practice-intensive curriculum is developed so that new users in the Autodesk Inventor software can benefit from a shorter introductory level student guide. The new user is taught how to find and use the modeling tools associated with familiar modeling strategies that are used in other 3D CAD software. Users of this student guide acquire the knowledge required to complete the process of creating models from conceptual sketching, through to solid modeling, assembly design, and drawing production.
As an accelerated introductory student guide, Autodesk Inventor 2017 (R1) for Experienced 3D CAD Users assumes prior knowledge of 3D modeling and other 3D CAD software. Users with AutoCAD or AutoCAD Mechanical experience are recommended to use the Autodesk Inventor 2017 (R1) Introduction to Solid Modeling student guide.
