Auto CAD Training for non-engineers

Hi I am someone who does not come from an engineering background and I am currently completing the courses that you have listed for Auto CAD (AutoCAD for Design and Drafting (D&D) Professional Certificate Prep), Creating and modifying objects with accuracy for D&D, technical drawing for D&D, drawing management for D&D, annotating and dimensioning for D&D, layout and output for D&D. All the listed courses have an estimated number of hours for completion.

If anyone was in a similar position to me in terms of experience and have completed these courses I would greatly appreciate your input

@sondos_ashour   A Technical Drafting Trades Certificate in a Canadian school is about 1800 hours. 

 

If your question is '' are these courses enough to get me working for an engineering office w countinuing on the job training''...?  I would say yes given the state of the job market. You would be correcting other people's work, printing plans, minor detailing, assembling pdf's and stuff like that. Basically doing what interns do until you build up enough skills to tackle bigger projects.   

 

Keep going & Good luck!

Thank you @dany_rochefort  for your help, the more courses I complete the more this becomes apparent to me.
