Course modules include: Construction of 3D Wire Frame Models, Manipulation and Creation of User Coordinate Systems, Creation of 3D Surface Models, Creation of 3D Solid Models, Use of Paper Space, and Plotting Operational Efficiency and Enquire commands. This will result in a competence in producing three-dimensional drawings from both 3D surface and solid models. Assessment consists of City and Guilds assignments, which are of a practical nature, plus a short multiple choice test.

The City and Guilds 3D CAD certificate is the highest CAD qualification offered but further study opportunities in engineering are available. Progression to a related job in industry with 3D Autocad.
