eTraining Course Navigation Strategies:
Beginners: Complete the course in order from beginning to end. Once any topic is completed, you will have full access to it at any time for one year after registration, to use as a resource.
Intermediate/Advanced Users: Use the course as a flexible resource tool to find what you need, whenever you need it. Try the assessment tests first, if you get 70%+ you can move to the next level, if you get less than 70% you should complete the lecture. This gives you a pre and post assessment score, which can be used to track your skills improvement.
You do not need any previous experience with Autodesk Civil 3D to take this course; however, it does assume a reasonable level of experience with other Autodesk software and with the Windows operating system.
