DraftSight is a feature-rich CAD tool for every type of design. This course will take you through the basics of DraftSight, from managing drawings with the 3DEXPERIENCE to using core tools that can complete any design and publish to a hard copy of PDF. Learn how to create and modify designs, clarify with dimensions, and use blocks to simplifying the drawing content. After completing the learning path, put your knowledge to the test and showcase your experience by taking the DraftSight Associate Certification.
