AutoCad Certified Professional

Anonymous — Sat, 01 Apr 2017 20:11:53 GMT

Hey all,

So Ive just signed up to AutoDesk University London and put myself down to do the AutoCAD Certified Professional Exam.

I was wondering where can I can find revision documents or practice exams.

Ive trying google-ing and looking through many things on there but i cant find anything that looks like it might lead to what i want.

Thanks in advance,

Caroline

Hi,

Check out this video for ACP.

The files are confidential. But if you visit an ATC, they can help you with a sample exam which would be a paid one.

Hi Caroline,

Good for you!

You might see if this page from Certiport helps.

I recently took the exam (2016) and there is not real way to practice for the exam other than just using AutoCAD. I did a piece on it a after the exam. They put out a list of topics that will be covered and it pretty much sums it up. Make sure you know how to use everything on that list.

Most of the test consisted of manipulating a drawing and based on the actions you perform you will take some sort of 'reading.' Some times its a measurement, some times its a description of a style. Basically its not a drafting test but a program function test. The only way to practice for it is to have used all the tools on their list.

Hi Caroline,

I recently did the certification and there isn't really a way to study for it online.

The test requires an 80% pass mark and is mainly based on accurately measuring objects. So if you are able to do: arrays, tables, lines @ bearing distance, pedits, isometric objects, views/viewports plotting you should do fine.

Hope that helps 🙂

TheCADnoob,

I tried to follow the links in your PDF file but many are no longer valid, just to let you know. The links that work take you to the 2011 help file, FYI.

Very nice document in spite off that.
