  Custom Training
Create a custom training class to meet your specific needs. CAD Masters can modify an existing class or work with you to create a precise curriculum for your group. We can incorporate current project work into class examples, teach your company’s CAD standards, or combine AutoCAD topics with Civil Survey or Architectural topics in one class. Several examples of custom curriculum are listed below, please call for additional options. Training can be scheduled at our training center or at your site. Multiple student discounts are available for class sizes of six or more students.
Prefer training at your site?
CAD Masters will bring the training center to you. Training cost includes Pentium IV computers with 1 GB RAM, 17" monitors, and all appropriate software loaded and configured, comprehensive course materials for each student and technical phone support for two months following instruction. Computers will be delivered prior to training and removed promptly when training is completed. Choose from standard training classes offered by CAD Masters, or we can work with you to customize the training to meet the needs of your group. Utilize an available conference room at your site or we can arrange for a conference room at a nearby facility. Multiple student discounts are available for class sizes of six or more.

Custom Land Desktop (1 to 6 Days)
Comprehensive or Update courses available.

Learn all of the new features of LDT in a custom update course designed specifically for your firm. Emphasize surveying, site design, or roadway rehabilitation. Let us tailor the course with your most typical project example. Schedule a 1-day update course for your most knowledgeable users, or schedule a 5-day comprehensive training course for your less experienced users. Perhaps a 3-day course would best suit your needs, covering new features as well as reviewing the design tools most applicable to your line of work. Call to discuss your situation with one of our instructors and we will create a custom course outline for your review.

Custom AutoCAD

Custom AutoCAD (1 to 5 Days)
Tailor a class to increase the efficiency of your drafting staff. Focus on topics in accuracy, or sheet layout with paper space and external references. Incorporate file management or CAD Standards topics to help staff work better as a team. Or use our skills evaluation exams to determine the current level of knowledge of your staff, so we can then propose the most effective curriculum for your group. Combine one day of AutoCAD training with several days of Land Desktop, Architectural Desktop, or Civil 3D training. Call to discuss your situation with one of our instructors and we will help you design the most effective curriculum for your group.

Raster Design (½ Day)
This course introduces the tools available within Raster Design to manipulate hybrid (raster & vector) files. Course emphasis is overlaying, editing, and plotting hybrid files as well as raster to vector conversion tools.

Applicable to: Raster Design or CAD Overlay

Topics Include: Raster Design provides raster display, image enhancement, and plotting capabilities for satellite imagery, scanned aerial photographs, or color TIFF images within AutoCAD. Learn editing tools to locate, erase, and change raster as easily as vector. Rubbersheeting tools facilitate more exact georeferencing. Overlay photographic images behind maps, plan and profile sheets, and other construction documents for site feasibility studies, presentation drawings, GIS, and more. Use the Palette Manager to change the colors of the image like layers in an AutoCAD drawing. "Heads-up" digitizing improves speed and accuracy. Line following routines can be used for automated conversion of contour data. Text recognition routines convert raster text to AutoCAD text objects. Scanned drawings may be converted completely to AutoCAD vectors or partially revised and plotted as hybrid raster/vector drawings.

Prerequisites:
AutoCAD Level I and II or instructor’s consent.
