This online certification course helps you build practical, job-ready skills in both AutoCAD and Revit while preparing you for Autodesk certification exams. You’ll learn how these tools are used together in professional architectural workflows, starting with the fundamentals and moving into more advanced techniques for creating accurate, industry-standard construction documents through hands-on, real-world projects.
Along the way, you’ll develop core AutoCAD skills such as navigating the interface, drafting in 2D, managing layers, adding dimensions and annotations, creating blocks, working with external references, and setting up sheets for plotting. In Revit, you’ll work in a BIM environment to model architectural projects, manage existing and new construction, generate plans, sections, elevations, and renderings, and produce coordinated construction documents and presentation-ready sheets.
This is the recommended order, but some courses may be taken in a different order. See the FAQ for more details.
This program includes these two certification exams as well as exam proctoring. The exams are optional.
The Autodesk Certified User (ACU) in AutoCAD exam is designed to validate mastery of fundamental drafting and design principles using AutoCAD software. This certification is ideal for students, educators, and professionals who wish to demonstrate their proficiency in creating and editing digital 2D and 3D designs.
Exam detailsThe Autodesk Revit Certified User Exam is designed to validate the foundational skills and knowledge of individuals using Autodesk Revit, a leading software in the architectural design and building information modeling (BIM) industry. This certification demonstrates a user’s ability to utilize Revit’s various tools and features effectively, creating professional-level designs and documentation

Refined over many years for an optimal learning experience
This training will definitely help my career. I was able to show my supervisor and co-workers what the software programs have to offer and what I'm capable of when the time comes for creating that construction design team in the future. I was able to provide documentation to my employer that the money spent was well worth it. The training I received at VDCI will become an asset moving forward.
