VDCI Student Comments about Learning Online
Here are a few comments from our online students, talking about their experiences learning online at VDCI. We also include Course Review comments for each specific course on the course’s Review Page.
This is a great course for people that don't know AutoCAD or just want to brush up on their knowledge! I would
recommend this program to all my student and professional friends.
Thank you for the excellent training. I will definitely be able to apply this course toward my current career
and become more valuable and efficient in my profession as a result.
I enjoyed the course and learned a good amount of information that will help me pass the Civil 3D certification
exam.
I was very pleased with the course and Instructor helped me a lot and sharpen skills.
A very engaging class, instructor is versed in the material and explains it well, and the software is amazing.
I very much enjoy working with and learning AutoCAD software at VDCI. The Instructors are very thorough and the
videos are well done as well. I look forward to building upon my skills in AutoCAD 301 starting next week.
I have a PhD in Biomedical Engineering and I taught med school for 10 years so I have a lot of experience in
academia. I took AutoCAD 101 and 201 with Tyler Grant and HE IS AWESOME! He is thorough and detail oriented.
He walked us through everything step-by-step and made sure we understood and stayed on track. He took the
additional time needed to keep everyone engaged and answer any questions people had. He also made learning
AutoCAD fun! I'm so grateful to have had such an amazing instructor.
Tyler was a great teacher. Tyler has three attributes that stand out that other teachers or trainers should learn.
Brevity, Clarity and concise. I had a great time and am looking forward to the next courses.
I love the way that the instructor is patient and he tries his best to make sure all students are on the same
page and understand the material. I hope it’ll be the same for our next upcoming courses! ;)
Excellent class, superb teaching. Looking forward to continuing with this schooling.
Excellent course! I learned so much. The information was easy to access, and instructions/information was delivered
in such a way that I could complete my work outside of the classroom setting.
Awesome program and instructors! Very professional at all levels and I would definitely recommend this course
to others.
The instructor was very clear and patient with all the students. Excellent overall presentation of material and
would highly recommend to others.
Before taking this class, I had no AUTOCAD experience at all. I had never done any projects or basic drafting
with it. However, after completing this course (about 5 classes) I can say that I obtained very useful and
beneficial skills that I can apply to school, work, etc. I am very pleased with the class, the instructor
and the drafting projects we did. Thanks!
Overall very satisfied with this course! I wish I had taken it sooner!
I've already recommended this program to a colleague with a similar background, as well as other courses offered
by these teachers because they've been so great.
VDCI Instructor Comments about Learning Online
Here are a few comments from our online instructors, talking about their experiences teaching online at VDCI.
It is so rewarding to receive an email from a student saying something like, “Thank you for teaching me so much.
Because of you and your fellow instructors, I have gotten a new job, a raise, and I’m able to take better
care of my family.” When VDCI ventured into offering our courses and programs online a few years ago, I never
expected to have such warm friendships with so many of my online students. They work hard. They ask me great
questions. They are succeeding, and I’m honored to be a part of their professional growth and development.
AutoCAD
At the office, we do a whole lot of work with Revit, working on complicated projects like hospitals, skilled
nursing facilities and educational campuses. I love working with Revit, I love teaching and I love sharing
my experiences with my students. I also really like it when they send me a message, or call me, and we discuss
different ways to solve different Revit situations. Even though we don’t always meet in person, my students
and I are always in contact. It’s fun and my students are great!
Revit
I am personally and professionally committed to using Revit and Navisworks in my architectural projects. As a
practicing professional, I truly enjoy sharing my experience with my students. It’s wonderful when my students
will send me a message and tell me how much the skills they are learning at VDCI are helping them out. It’s
great to make a difference in someone’s life.
Navisworks
I work at a relatively large architectural firm which specializes in biotech. We use Revit all the
time. When I am developing the courses for VDCI, I always put on my professional hat and make sure that I’m
incorporating the latest and greatest tools and workflows into my courses. My students obviously really like
that. They are regularly telling me how they are bringing the project workflows they learned in my classes
into their offices and companies.
Revit
I’m a Civil Engineer, and use Civil 3D all the time at my office. It’s a great software program, and is so capable.
When I’m teaching at VDCI, my students are actively engaged. They ask some great questions, and I do my best
to provide them some great answers. My students really take advantage of the VDCI Student Forum. It seems
that they are always ...
