ORIENTATION
For High School students enrolled in the
Drafting Program
will be held Wednesday, August 6, 2008 at 6:00 p.m. in Building 7 in Room
701.
Architectural Drafting prepares students to become blue print readers,
drafting assistants, drafting detailers, CAD drafters, or architectural or
mechanical drafters and provide support to architects and engineers in the
development of detailed drawings and specifications. The use of the drawing
board and AutoCAD (computer-aided drafting) are incorporated into all
aspects of the training. Students learn to prepare plans for residential
buildings and structures, basic commercial and public buildings, and
commercial interiors.
Upon completion of the program, a certificate of completion is issued in
either Mechanical and/or Architectural Drafting.
 The
computer-aided drafting portion of the program is available as a separate
course for the experienced drafter and for those professionals needing to
update their CAD or drafting skills. Prospective students must demonstrate
drafting proficiency prior to enrollment by presenting a portfolio or
demonstration. Written transcripts alone are not acceptable.
Students are eligible to join SkillsUSA.
