PREMIER AUTHORIZED AUTOCAD TRAINING CENTER Austin Community College has been designated a Premier Autodesk Training Center (ATC) by Autodesk, the developer of AutoCAD software. ATCs constitute a world-wide network of institutions officially recognized by Autodesk as sites for AutoCAD training. Each site must meet Autodesk’s stringent criteria for curriculum, facilities and faculty. Since 1989, we have trained hundreds of students, many from out of state, and some from as far away as South America and Africa. ACC is one of about 100 ATCs worldwide to earn Autodesk’s Premier ATC designation. At the completion of certain 16, 24, 32 or 40-hour courses, students receive a certificate from Autodesk. Students receive a certificate from ACC at the completion of every ATC course.

CREDIT Each course carries Continuing Education Units (CEUs), nationally recognized units of measurement for professional development and training. ACC is a registered provider of the American Institute of Architects Continuing Education System and members of the AIA qualify for AIA/CES learning units which may be applied toward licensure requirements.

DFTG 5054 Autodesk Revit Essentials (40.0 hours/$795.00)
This course will introduce you to the revolutionary parametric capabilities of Autodesk Revit. As a true parametric 3D digital building modeler, Revit uses intelligent building components such as floors, walls, doors, windows, stairways, etc., rather than simple objects like lines, circles and arcs that represent building components, as in traditional CAD systems. Each component is linked through a high performance change propagation engine, allowing a single change in any model view to be propagated throughout all views, both parametrically and bi-directionally. Students will learn to use the software as an architectural design tool, then instruct the program to produce floor plans, elevations, schedules, and rendered views automatically on plotted sheets. This course will cover an overview of Revit concepts, user interface, project set-up, designing with digital building components, producing drawing sheets, and detailing and documenting the project. Prerequisites: Basic computer skills required. Experience in the design and/or drafting of commercial and residential buildings is helpful.

DFTG 5059 Advanced Assembly Management with Pro/Engineer Wildfire (20.0 hours/$1125.00)
Pro/Engineer Wildfire enables you to create complex assemblies using a top-down design process. In this course you will learn how to use Pro/Engineer Wildfire 2.0 to create and manage complex assemblies using top-down design techniques. In the top-down design process, you start an assembly design by creating a layout. The layout contains specifications and parameters that are used to control the entire assembly design. Then you create a preliminary assembly structure. This structure contains the components and their hierarchy within the assembly. Next, you use skeletons to define critical component dimensions and mounting locations, space requirements, and the motion between the assembly components. Finally, you create component geometry by referencing the skeletons and sharing design information within the assembly.

DFTG 5060 Advanced Part Modeling with Pro/Engineer Wildfire (16.0 hours/$750.00)
This course teaches you how to use advanced part modeling techniques in Pro/Engineer Wildfire to improve your product designs. You learn how to create and modify design models using advanced sketching techniques and feature creation tools. You learn how to reuse existing design geometry when creating new design models. You also learn how to analyze and optimize design models to conform to design specifications. After completing this advanced course you will be well prepared to work efficiently with complex product designs using Pro/Engineer Wildfire 2.0.
