    Re: Placing a drawing in a sheet is not flexible,

    I assume that you necessarily attend a couple of training courses through your professional life. Which impression you got about them? Do they, in general, deliver results?

     

    In most case, these training miss integrity as you have indicated.

     

    My standpoint is that training courses build awareness rather than solid skills sufficient for the actual practical.

    My standpoint is that training courses can, and should, give you the necessary skills to start a project. Not also skills but also confidence. And the course should be personalized. There is a big difference between "a grid", and "my grid", between "a column" and "my column". That makes a lot of difference. Also, the format is important; so many hours in too short a time is tiring and counter-productive. Extended support after the classroom is essential, (usually inexistent in the usual academic offerings). The instructor must have earned his daily bread doing projects, or models, or families, or whatever topic he is teaching, (professional experience) and should have experience and passion for training, as well.

     

    If you paid for a 30-hour training, and you came back to the office not even knowing how to place a level or a grid, you have been another victim of poor training.
