Course Details

Trimble SketchUp (formerly Google) is software that you can use to create, modify and share 3D models and is an easy to learn 3D modelling program. SketchUp has been design with a simplified toolset, guided drawing system and clean look-and-feel to enable the work to be done as efficiently as possible. Trimble SketchUp has plenty of its own idiosyncrasies, particularly for those folks who consider themselves 'casual or part-time users'.

So, whether you're a SketchUp newbie or a CAD software veteran, we offer training options that will have you creating amazing designs in no-time!

This course is intended for those with little or no experience in 3D drawing, and is a perfect starting point for graphic designers and other creative professionals.

You will need basic PC or Mac skills, including a solid understanding of a computer's operating system (Windows or Mac OS). You will also need to know how to launch a program, create and save files, and copy files from CDs and other media.
