    I like being able to work at my own pace for the online training. It was a great introduction course for me to start a new career path in drafting and permitting.

  • Jeffrey Mayo Aug 14, 2025

    I enjoyed being challenged to learn something new. Very good course for novice CAD users who haven’t done it since earlier education. It helped me to understand programming for our CNCs in the stone industry.

  • Blanca Edeza Aug 13, 2025

    I enjoyed the blueprint examples which helped me greatly. The training helped me change careers and join the field of construction.

  • Nicole Baird Aug 6, 2025

    I had a fantastic experience taking AutoCAD courses through VDCI. From start to finish, the program was well-structured, informative, and incredibly practical for needing a self paced program. The instructional videos were knowledgeable and provided clear, step-by-step guidance that made even complex concepts easy to grasp. What really stood out to me was how hands-on the coursework was, I really enjoyed the hands-on quizzes they provided. Each assignment helped build real-world skills, and I walked away feeling confident in my ability to create and manage professional-level drawings in AutoCAD. The pacing was manageable, even with a busy schedule, and the support team was responsive whenever I had questions or needed assistance. I will say the quizzes were over smaller details that I wish the videos went over more, but it was still doable. I highly recommend VDCI. The training I received not only strengthened my technical abilities but also prepared me to apply those skills in a professional setting. I’m grateful for the experience and proud of the progress I made.

  • Rachel Schmidt-Greene Aug 3, 2025

    Amazing! Every lesson was easy to understand and follow step by step. This course gave me the CAD knowledge I needed and assisted with creating a portfolio that helped me secure a drafting job for a surveying firm.

  • Jordan McGee Jul 18, 2025

    I really enjoyed the self paced schedule! This course provided the baseline understanding of AutoCAD for me to get into design assistant work.

  • Aryan Keyhani Jul 18, 2025

    The course was very informative and I learned a lot. The academic advisor and my instructor were very understanding and helpful. I can say that I know the program!

  • Jared Scheel Jul 17, 2025

    This course helped me take my AutoCAD skills to the next level. The progression of lessons made sense, and the step-by-step video instruction made even complex tasks approachable. I especially appreciated how the course emphasized real-world workflow—working across model space, paper space, and creating polished sheets. CAD 201 gave me the confidence to go from basic drafting to producing clean, professional-looking elevation sheets. I learned how to manage layers, blocks, dimensions, and layout views more efficiently. The hands-on projects helped reinforce everything, and the instructor did a great job of breaking down each step. This course has been a major milestone in my CAD learning journey.

  • Jared Scheel Jul 7, 2025

    As someone with a full schedule and a strong interest in architecture, this course was a great addition to my weekly routine. The structure made it easy to follow and fit into my existing workload, and I appreciated how hands-on and applicable each lesson was. It felt both practical and inspiring. This course gave me the confidence to use AutoCAD from an architectural perspective. Even as a beginner, the clear instruction and logical progression made learning enjoyable. I highly recommend it to anyone balancing a busy schedule but wanting real progress in design!

  • Evan Shugats Jul 5, 2025

    I really enjoyed this course. It helped me to get back into the AutoCAD workflow after being out of it for some time. The videos were very well made and helped me to pass this course with ease. This is a great course to partake in if you are looking to get into the field of AutoCAD. I would definitely recommend to anyone who is interested in this field of work as a starting point!

  • Larry Clark Jul 2, 2025

    I completed my AutoCAD Professional Program this spring. The high point for me was the VDCI staff that assisted me in getting my program set up, and helping me throughout my learning experience. My instructor John O’Malley was great, always very accepting of all my questions and willing to help. I liked the online format and the videos worked well for me. I really liked the program and it has helped me tremendously with my job. It seems I am being asked to draw something new every week. Thank you!

  • Vilopa Parihar Jun 27, 2025

    The course was well planned and helped me build my resume with the proper knowledge and skills needed for the entry level jobs.

  • Lisa Whiteside Jun 27, 2025

    I liked the flexibility of the lessons! I'm hoping to advance into a different career with my certificate.

  • Holly Cumpton Jun 27, 2025

    Amazing experience with VDCI! I have never touched AutoCAD before I started my class with VDCI and I was so nervous. My current job was allowing me to get a promotion to the CAD department pending how I did in this class. I had the class during COVID when all employees worked from home so that added to my nervousness because I wouldn’t have anyone there to ask for help with anything. But the instructor was very informative, everything was hands on, you could rewatch the lessons until you got the hang of it. Very user friendly. After passing this course and learning so much in a short amount of time, I was granted a promotion to the CAD department along with a raise, and I enjoy all I have been able to accomplish since then! This course made me fall in love with my job.

  • Will Stone Jun 27, 2025

    The instructor clearly explained how the program worked and I really enjoyed making the layout in AutoCAD which is a process I’ve always been interested in. After taking the class I was able to move into a role at work that I had been striving for years to get.

  • Cindy Tran Jun 27, 2025

    I enjoyed the ease of watching lectures, and the responsiveness of the instructor. VDCI helped me learn and realize the value in digital rendering and drawings; it has helped me read basic blueprints and allows me to use knowledge from the course.

  • Robert Gabai Jun 11, 2025

    Great knowledge. It is a must for anyone from any background. An essential tool for the rest of your life. I am a general contractor. While I was taking the course, I used the knowledge to make a plan for repairs of a 4000 sqft property. I had the building engineer, who was hired by the owner to look at it. He reviewed did some minor correction and put his seal on it and it got approved. Thanks to VDCI’s AutoCAD course. Highly recommend it.

  • Michelle H. Mar 2, 2025

    I think it's very well done, the instructor speaks clearly, slowly, and continuously reminds the viewer of common things like "hit return to complete" or "click to accept." This is extremely helpful as there can be many keystrokes in a single action.
