Frequently asked questions
Is software included in the purchase?
It is not. You’ll need to gain access to the software on your own but the good news is, this course teaches the most affordable option of AutoCAD & the software usually comes with a free trial!
Does this course teach Apple and PC?
Yes. The trainings were recorded on Windows PC. But, regardless of Mac or PC, the commands taught in the course do not change. There's a resource in the Course that helps you navigate the Mac ribbon bar vs. PC ribbon bar.
How long does it take to get through the course?
The course is 100% online and self-paced. You can get through it as quickly or as slowly as you'd like. However, most students take anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks with full time responsibilities to get through the course.
Do you offer payment plans?
We do not. Instead, we offer a variety of tiered level courses from $47 to $1997 so designers can choose the option that works for them.
Do you offer refunds?
Unfortunately, due to the nature of the course being a digital product with access to ready-made digital downloads, there are no refunds given. But we always want this to be an informed and intentional decision so if you have questions before enrolling, send us a message via our Contact Page. We will get back to you within 24-48 hours.
Do you offer direct support if help is needed?
