Note you must have access to AutoCAD 2000, 2002, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007,2008 or LT2000, LT2002, LT2004, LT2005, LT2006, LT2007or LT2008 for this course. Educational versions of AutoCAD will work for the course as well.

Note: By default AutoCAD LT does not have all of the features found in the full versions of AutoCAD. You may want to check out the AutoCAD LT Slingshot MAX add-on program which will give AutoCAD LT just about all of the 2D drawing tools found in AutoCAD. This upgrade is OPTIONAL, meaning you can successfully complete the course without the upgrade, however there will be certain exercises you cannot complete. For more information visit the Slingshot MAX information page.
