My experience at VDCI was amazing! My favorite aspect of the program was getting to build my own project. I now have a better understanding of CAD/Revit.
Kaylee Clay
The training gave me a foundation to build upon drafting.

Though my current career is not in the CAD arena, this training helped me to better comprehend some of the technical tools we use to support our military. For my future career in drafting and design, this program taught me very valuable skills and attention to detail that will help me produce quality drawings.

VDCI training courses definitely helped me to get a job in the field. At the moment, I work as a building designer (architectural technician) and I have been using part of what I learned from their courses. A lot of what I learned in Revit when taking Revit courses at VDCI have been translated into my job with success.

So my training, I still use it every day. I actually train staff using autocad on a daily basis and I used the tools that I learned in my training here to train my own staff. My education at VDCI helped me get a job immediately actually drafting in AutoCAD and Revit and I've been using AutoCAD on a daily basis since I took the program.

Over the last 25 years, I've worked in the fields of interior, lighting, web and graphic design. At some point I took a sabbatical to raise three kids. With the design industry constantly changing, I needed to find a way to get up to speed. VDCI was instrumental in getting me back into the workforce. I decided to go back to my interior design roots and looked into AutoCAD and BIM. Back in college, we drafted on vellum and fed them through blueprint machines. Within a matter of months, I learned how to produce the same types of construction documents with AutoCAD and Revit in a fraction of the time. From day one, the staff at VDCI guided me every step of the way. They offered both onsite night classes that worked with my schedule and the convenience of online classes. The online instructors corresponded promptly whenever I had any questions. Victoria Stover was my point of contact, and I can truly say I couldn't have made it work without her. She was accessible on a daily basis and worked around my schedule regarding planning courses and certification exams. She is gold. I am now working for an architect firm doing design development, construction documents and rendering. Revit is a robust program, and I’m learning new functionality on a daily basis. I took both certification courses in AutoCAD and Revit. If anyone is interested in working in the design industry, VDCI will give you the foundation you need to relaunch your career.

It helps me two ways currently. My resume with this badge gives me more opportunities. This is because I already appear professional. Second, as part of my services I get income for my designs. In the future if needed I can draw for a few firms here as well.
Cainan Asbury
Loved how it was mostly self based. Definitely helped me continue working my 40 hours and doing this here and there!

Very helpful because I used AutoCAD and Revit every day.
Ryan Gazale
I have gained some knowledge in AutoCAD drafting which I wish to employ after graduation to give me a slight edge.
Brian Anzo Amegovu
I graduated from VDCI in 2011. Now, I'm a licensed architect working in California without having an industry-related degree. I initially worked in the construction industry as a laborer in the field. I had some experience working with plans but knew nothing about drafting or blueprint creation. I decided to enroll in VDCI’s CAD/BIM Certificate Program to learn about AutoCAD and construction documents. To this day, I utilize the skills I learned at VDCI and train my staff through them.
John O'Malley
The videos and overall experience was great. At times it was tough getting through all the material but making the time to do it definitely paid off in the end! Thank you VDCI for the help in this achievement.
Anthony Perez
This program was very helpful for me to start my career in the drafting/design trade. I was very satisfied with the courses and my instructors. Whenever I had a question or needed help trying to figure out the software, they did their best to help answer my questions.

I had a very positive experience in completing this program! While all the instructors were great, Mr. O'Malley and Ms. Cortis both stand out in my mind as exceptional. Both of them went beyond just answering my questions, but provided extra resources and in-depth feedback. Both were extremely helpful and much appreciated. I am still amazed that I learned so much in such a short period of time. The hands-on approach used in the courses was fantastic, because I not only learned about the programs, but how to actually use them to produce real drawings and models. Also, in addition to the great instructors, the other VDCI staff have been very supportive and wonderful to work with. I am 100% happy with my decision to go with VDCI for this program.

I enjoyed my experience a lot. I found it to be very informative and flexible and exactly what I needed to expand into the career that I hope to get. I was satisfied with my instructors. I found my practicum professor. Megan Lacy, stood out to me the most. The VDCI staff was always very helpful and quick to respond to any questions or concerns I had though out my whole experience in the program. I found the practicum to be the most enjoyable and confidence building part of the program. It allowed me to combine everything I learned and really solidified the skills that I had learned through out my program.

I've really enjoyed my experience at VDCI and will definitely recommend them to anyone I know who wants to learn the programs. The teachers are very informative, they work in the real world of what they teach, and are attentive to their students. The admin staff has also been great and are still super helpful even after I've completed the program.

I really enjoyed the whole course overall. It was amazing to see how the software had changed over the years and the ease that some of it had evolved into. All the instructors that I had over the whole course were very knowledgeable in their fields and were able to help whenever software issues arose. They were always available for questions; they would give good feedback with the work that was submitted for grading, which helped as I moved along in the course. I look forward to working in the field and expanding on it by continuing with future classes in 3D and Navis.

Extremely informative and intuitive. Both the teachers and the course helped guide me through the learning process very well. Having started knowing absolutely nothing, I can say my knowledge on CAD/BIM has expanded greatly through the lessons I took. Thanks for always being so kind and understanding as I went through my course, the staff at VDCI have all been a pleasure to meet.

I've really enjoyed every instructor I've had. Full disclaimer, before quarantine I was kind of on track to becoming a machinist, but college and it's instructors just weren't always great for me. VDCI's instructors and experts have been wonderful at every step I got to. I cannot stress enough just how much that means for a guy with a touch of learning disabilities.
Kyle Eirschele
Everything I’ve learned about CAD/BIM at VDCI will help me to design residential and commercial projects and put them on sheets.
Chayce Lewing
O’Malley is awesome, he takes his time and never rushes through. Great instructors and great support staff.

Excellent pace and lots of different ways to accomplish the same task, very engaging course.

I feel like this course is really good for people who don't have much experience in AutoCAD and it really helped me enhance my knowledge on using AutoCAD. Thank you!

My instructor, David, responded to all of my questions in a timely manner. Overall, the course helped solidify a good introduction into AutoCAD!
Lindsay Davis
Great balance of repetition of key work flows and buttons mixed with introducing new ways to complete a task. Perfect pace to follow along. I especially liked creating relevant drawings as a way to go over all the different buttons and commands vs just talking about it.
