How The Course is Presented
Course Presentation
The Getting Started with Caddie course is hosted on a secure learning platform. Once your payment has been processed you will be enrolled onto to the course. An individual profile will be created and login details sent to the email address you provide.
The Getting Started with Caddie course has twenty two modules with associated lessons with video demonstrations, exercises and questions. Each module is clearly set out with an 'Overview' that highlights the content that will be covered in the lessons.
Modules and lessons are sequential and need to be completed in order. Each lesson has a video to watch and associated questions to answer. A lesson will only have been completed by spending the required time watching the video then answering the questions, achieving the pass grade of 75%.
Some of the modules have more than one lesson and you will also complete practical exercises throughout the course.
The practical exercises require you to download and open an example drawing in Caddie and then follow instructions to create an object or interrogate the drawing to answer questions. You will use the commands that have been demonstrated in the video. You will need to open your own copy of Caddie to complete the exercises.
These exercises provide the opportunity for you to test your knowledge and reinforce your learning experience whilst using Caddie.
Certificate of Achievement
To complete the course you must work through each of the modules and lessons in turn. To gain a Certificate of Achievement, each module and the accompanying questions and exercises must be completed and passed. There is a pass mark of 75% and a time restriction to ensure a minimum length of time is spent in each lesson.
Time Commitment
The minimum time has been calculated for watching the video clip and answering the questions once. This is indicated in each lesson overview.
You will not be able to move to the next lesson until you have spent the minimum amount of time watching the video, answering all the questions in the lesson and achieving the pass grade.
Once you have enrolled you will have 12 weeks to complete the course. You will be able to study anytime and anyplace that you have an internet connection and Caddie running. Once you have successfully completed and received a certificate for the course you will have unlimited access to revisit the course.
The online course can be completed in multiple sessions and is equivalent to a three day face to face training course of 6.5 hours per day.

Overview
Getting Started with Architecture Engineering and Construction (AEC) Application course was developed in 2021. It is our latest course within the Caddie Basics category.
Caddie Architectural provides you with the tools you need to make the most of the time you get to design. Whether you want to create a 3D building model, viewing your design from every conceivable angle, or simply produce a set of plans, sections and elevations in a fraction of the time it would take to draw line-by-line, Caddie Architectural makes it easy to produce the drawings you need to satisfy clients, planners and building control.
Getting Started with AEC covers the basics from inserting walls, windows, floors and doors to roofs, stairs and railings as well as presenting your finished model.
It is aimed at users who want to progress from 2D to 3D or existing Caddie users who want to refresh or extend their knowledge and skills to get the best out of all of the features in the software.
Everything that has previously been learnt in Caddie to draw 2D plans is still very relevant when drawing 3D objects. There are in addition many more commands that allow the ease of drawing and manipulation of 3D objects.

The Caddie Digital Terrain Modelling course has seven modules with associated lessons with video demonstrations, exercises and questions. Each module is clearly set out with an 'Overview' that highlights the content that will be covered in the lessons.
Modules and lessons are sequential and need to be completed in order. Each lesson has a video to watch and associated questions to answer. A lesson will only have been completed by spending the required time watching the video then answering the questions, achieving the pass grade of 75%.
Some of the modules have more than one lesson and you will also complete practical exercises throughout the course.
The practical exercises require you to download and open an example drawing in Caddie and then follow instructions to create an object or interrogate the drawing to answer questions. You will use the commands that have been demonstrated in the video. You will need to open your own copy of Caddie to complete the exercises.
These exercises provide the opportunity for you to test your knowledge and reinforce your learning experience whilst using Caddie.
Certificate of Achievement
To complete the course you must work through each of the modules and lessons in turn.
