Training, but what type?
« on: May 09, 2005, 11:52:20 AM »
Ok, this is a weird question, but bear with me.

In our field, Paperspace is not widely used.  In fact, it would be safe to say that in 9 years, I could probably count the number of times I've had to use it on one hand.  Now, because I'm kind of the Jack-of-all-Master-of-none, I've got to become more advanced in this area.  Now, since this topic has come up with the higher ups here, they've basically asked me to go out and find some kind of course or training that would relate to this.  I doubt if I'll find something specifically related to Paperspace, but it would likely be covered in some other kind of course.  (Basic AutoCAD 101? :twisted: )

I guess what I would really like to know is whether I should maybe look for a general refresher course that covers a great deal of AutoCAD or something more specific?  Also, if you know of anything online, that would be a viable option as well.

Ideas?  Suggestions?

Thanks folks!  :D

This is ancient (around 1995), but I recall thinking back then that it was a good start for noobs. Good enough that I remembered the url after so many years. I didn't check it out today (content wise) but I'm guessing it has stood the test of time.

What about if you learn it then teach it to all your folks. Maybe pickup a couple extra $$ along the way.

Good luck there. I have tried that with my boss and he refuses to pay me.  The guys at my office need some serious upgrading but unless I get payed for it, it is not going to happen at my place of employment.

Teach. The money will come. Nothwithstanding, teaching produces rewards that have nothing to do with money.

Stress Relief!  If I were able to teach a certain someone here, and have him retain it, Drawings would be much better and I wouldn't be sitting here, grumbling to myself about him and the drawings he just screwed up!
