1.
Create and revise CADD drawings.
2.
Choose appropriate tools and techniques to produce effective and well organized CADD drawings.
3.
Use industry terminology and standards.
4.
Identify opportunities to improve productivity and accuracy and construct appropriate solutions.
EMPLOYMENT INFORMATION
CADD has generally replaced conventional drafting practices, with the number of CADD positions steadily increasing. Employment opportunities will continue to grow. Designers, architects, drafters, engineering technicians, and engineers will be required to operate
CADD systems effectively and proficiently in order to be functional in their respective or prospective positions.
According to the 2014-2015 Occupational Outlook Handbook , over
2,000 jobs are expected to be added by 2022.
