Those who like to think more and design are the first preference for various CAD jobs. Students coming out from website design courses in Mumbai also opt for some CAD jobs due to the similarity in the level of creativity required for it. For getting good and high paying CAD jobs in Mumbai the students have engineering or architecture as fields to select from. Each of the fields has its own job growth statistics and salary opportunities to go with. Majority of the CAD drafters either hold an associate’s degree or a certificate.

CAD drafters primarily employ AutoCAD, which is the AEC industry’s leading drafting as well as design software for preparing 2D as well as technical drawings. These drawings are primarily used by the drafters as blueprints for the construction of products and structures including buildings, machinery, microchips, electrical & plumbing systems, vehicles, toys and several other manufactured goods. The drafting professionals working on AutoCAD are associated with several job titles including, engineer, drafter, estimator, designer, modeller, architect or illustrator.

The AutoCAD drafters need to think out of the box and create innovative and appealing designs. How can they go about this? Well, the best AutoCAD drafters combine characteristics such as creativity and spatial relationships with mathematics and analytical thinking and the result is the aforementioned work. AutoCAD helps you in every walk of your professional life as it helps you in bringing ideas to life and that too regardless of your CADD career lying in civil engineering, architecture or even entertainment sector. In today’s environment, especially in the AEC industry AutoCAD is considered to be the most sought after software and the courses related to it are in great demand similar to UI/UX design courses in Mumbai. The overall demand to the jobs related to the tool is quite high as various versions of AutoCAD and other Autodesk products are particularly designed for drafters in specific industries and job roles.

How to become an AutoCAD Drafter?

For the position of AutoCAD drafter, the AEC companies primarily select those students who get trained in recent version of AutoCAD or a specialized Autodesk drafting program such as AutoCAD Civil 3D, Revit Architecture or 3ds Max. AutoCAD drafting can be learnt in a two year program at a technical or trade school, as part of an associate or bachelor’s degree from an accredited university, or through a post-secondary diploma or certificate program.

A recent study suggests that employment for drafters is estimated to grow by 1% from the current period up to 2022. It might look slower than the IT sector, however, those students having appropriate AutoCAD knowledge and specializations would have a great deal of job opportunities.

A certificate or an associate’s degree program is all what’s required to get started in a CAD design career. There are several options available for a CAD designer depending on their interests.
