CAD Center’s Ameerpet branch specifically draws students from engineering colleges affiliated with Osmania University, JNTU, and private deemed universities — creating a classroom environment that mirrors real multi-discipline project teams. Beyond location, our industry connects in Hyderabad’s engineering, construction, and manufacturing sectors are strongest here. Over 100% of our Ameerpet batch graduates who complete placement support find employment within six months — a figure we publish because we are willing to stand behind it.

It depends on your starting point and the depth you need. AutoCAD 2D Drafting — the essential foundation skill — takes 6 weeks in our regular-paced batches, covering everything from the interface and precision input to full drawing sets and plotting. Adding 3D Modelling extends this to around 14 weeks total. Specialisation tracks (Civil, Mechanical, or Electrical) each add 6–8 weeks. Our fast-track programme condenses the 2D course into 3 weeks for students who can commit to full days. Realistically, most students who want to be job-ready in a single specialism (e.g. AutoCAD Civil for a site draughtsman role) complete their training and portfolio in 8–10 weeks from zero experience. Advanced tools like CATIA V5 or NX CAD typically require 12 weeks because they involve deeper conceptual foundations.

Yes. On completion of any course, students receive a CAD Center course completion certificate. Students who study AutoCAD courses are additionally guided through the Autodesk Certified User (ACU) or Autodesk Certified Professional (ACP) examination process — globally recognised credentials that carry weight with employers worldwide, not just in India.

Our fees vary by course: AutoCAD 2D Drafting and AutoCAD Electrical are priced between ₹8,000 and ₹12,000. The 3D Modelling, Civil, and Mechanical tracks range from ₹12,000 to ₹18,000. Advanced professional tools — NX CAD and 3ds Max — range from ₹18,000 to ₹25,000, and the full CATIA V5 programme is priced between ₹22,000 and ₹30,000 depending on batch type and duration. All fees include course materials, software access on our lab systems, Autodesk exam guidance, and placement support for six months post-completion. We offer an instalment plan (2 or 3 parts, zero interest) that can be arranged at the time of admission. For a current, course-specific quote, use the enquiry form on this page or call us — fees are occasionally revised to reflect changes in software licensing costs.

No. All training happens on our fully licensed. Students who want to practise at home are given guidance on obtaining legitimate student-edition Autodesk software, which is available at no cost through the Autodesk Education Community. If you do own a capable laptop (8 GB RAM minimum, dedicated GPU recommended for 3D work) we can help you configure it correctly during the first week. Bringing a USB drive to every session so you can take your drawing files home is strongly encouraged.

Absolutely. Roughly 40% of our Ameerpet enrolments are working professionals — typically engineers who used CAD tools superficially in college or relied on operators earlier in their careers. The evening and early morning batches are designed specifically for this group. We begin every course from the very first principle, so no prior CAD experience is assumed. What we do assume is a basic level of computer literacy (file management, keyboard shortcuts) and, for specialization courses, a foundational understanding of the engineering discipline involved — Civil, Mechanical, or Electrical engineering concepts as appropriate.
