SHORT TERM CERTIFICATE COURSES in AutoCAD with AutoLISP

Computer Aided Design/Drafting (CAD) has emerged as a proven design and maintenance tool in almost all engineering and manufacturing fields. It helps the production of a drawing and design with a significant speed-up and accuracy. The technology driven competitive environment in today's market place is compelling design/consulting engineering firms and manufacturing companies to seek CAD conversion of their existing paper based engineering documents. AutoCAD developed by Autodesk Inc., is the most popular PC-based CAD (Computer Aided Drafting) system available in the market. Nearly 1.8 million people in 80 countries around the world are using AutoCAD to generate various kinds of drawing. It is very user-friendly, and most popular for any type of engineering drawing. To fully appreciate it's benefits, you should think of AutoCAD as not just a fancy drafting tool, but a means of modeling a design on the computer. AutoCAD offers a higher level of speed, accuracy and easy to use. It has provided drawing accuracy of 16 decimal places. It is compliant with ISO (International Standards Organization). AutoLISP, an implementation of the LISP programming language, is an integral part of the AutoCAD package. With AutoLISP, the engineer or draftsman can write powerful macros and functions suited to graphics applications, specially as a computational, logical, decision-making, graphical interface to AutoCAD.
