My name is Willie Coker and I recently took a 24 hour AutoCAD course with Rick Feineis as my instructor. I learned so much in so little time.

Right after I designed a fire sprinkler system I submitted the plans to two separate plan reviewers and both of the plan reviewers signed off on…read more →
I would strongly recommend this course to absolutely anyone who is interested in learning the basics of AutoCAD. Even those who have limited computer skills can learn from Rick.

Extremely satisfied with CAD Training Online, and the one on one help I received. My instructor was world-class and tailored the AutoCAD Electrical class to meet my company's needs. I would highly recommend this class to my peers.
For years I thought that CAD was something I didn't need and couldn't learn but I was wrong, CAD Training Online was exactly what I needed. I not only learned a lot about CAD but I am furthering my education with them going into AutoCAD MEP, REVIT Architectural and REVIT MEP. Rick is a great guy and a great trainer.
