Certifications in CAD?

Stercus Accidit · 2010-06-19 14:32:57

I was wondering if there is a way to get certified as a CAD trainer or what other options I have to get certified as a CAD technician. I have worked as a draughtsman and have been doing private lessons, but would like to be able to have a cert of some sort for applying to jobs and so on. Any suggestions?

Currently doing a level 2 course with EduCAD. See educadprofessional.com (I'm not associated with them but I'll give them a plug coz it's a good course) for more details.

I think City&Guilds is the most widely accepted course internationally and AFAIK the two major centres that offer C&G courses are Griffith college and AIT.
