Free AutoCAD Course

Learning AutoCAD is no longer an excuse in these times of connectivity. It is now possible to find manuals with videos completely free online. Free autocad course This option that I show you is perhaps the best course alternative to learn AutoCAD in an easy way.

It is the work of Luis Manuel González Nava, a version that existed in a 565-page printed book and two DVDs and is now available on the AulaClic platform. The methodology includes explanatory sections, concepts and images that complement the learning with the video tutorials uploaded on YouTube that have audio and explanations beyond what we could expect. Although it is based on the interface prior to AutoCAD 2009, the valuable thing is in the methodology, since the commands are the same.

Now it is totally free, as long as it is viewed online from AulaClic. It is advisable to watch the videos, one by one, without despairing until you understand the full dimension of what the system does, then you can delve into the written content. The next step could be to try to do the same work on the video, stop it if necessary, and in that dynamic surely in four days well dedicated someone could learn the program himself as if he had been (or better) than if he had been in a 60 hour course.

The general division of content is separated into 41 sections that can be viewed from the Main Index. There is also an index of video tutorials with the same numbering. This is the index of videos.

Below I show you an example of the videos, as you will see, they have an explanation not only of the program's functionalities but also of concepts and adaptation to conventional artists. This is the printing section, one of the most difficult topics in AutoCAD courses.  

So if your intention is to learn AutoCAD, free and with videos, this may be the best way. It is worth being aware, since this same course is already being Built for AutoCAD 2012.

Go to the AutoCAD course.
