How long does it take to master AutoCAD?
It is very difficult to predict the amount of time that it will take for a person to become proficient using AutoCAD. Important factors are the individual's level of computer knowledge, the amount of time using AutoCAD and the frequency that AutoCAD is used. A computer savvy individual, using AutoCAD 15‑25 hours per week, every week, should become proficient in 6‑12 weeks.
