What our students say about this Vectorworks course:
Louis - I took the 3-day Vectorworks course online and it's been such a great experience, even though I was worried because I thought that maybe I wouldn't be able to understand everything. Instead, Sami is extremely knowledgeable and patient, explaining step by step and answering all our questions kindly, and showing great experience in his field.
Jennifer - Excellent training! First time learning Vectorworks.
Andrea - I was a complete novice and, let's say, over a certain age, I feel it hurt my brain this much it must have been good. After only three days I feel I am well on my way to understanding Vectorworks.
