Changes are possible. The course content is updated regularly.

After the course, you will be able to use the 2D functions and techniques of the latest version of AutoCAD software quickly and effectively and create complex two-dimensional drawings. The Autodesk product range is the most widely used CAD software in the world. As a vector-oriented drawing program, AutoCAD is based on simple objects such as lines, polylines, circles, arcs and texts and therefore offers you an excellent introduction to the field of CAD. You will also get to know 3D drawings and basic visualization techniques.

You will also learn how to use the new EPLAN drawing environment. This includes the drawing of circuit diagrams in the areas of device, machine, plant and building technology. After the course, you will also be able to evaluate these plans and document electrical systems and devices.

You will also master basic project management techniques and be able to use them with software support (MS Project). The theoretical knowledge imparted in combination with many practical exercises will enable you to carry out future projects professionally.

People with a degree in engineering, technicians, master craftsmen, technical draughtsmen and specialists with relevant professional experience.

The additional qualification in project management is suitable for people from the technical, creative and/or commercial or office sector who are familiar with the planning, implementation and evaluation of projects or who aspire to such an activity.

With knowledge of electrical planning with EPLAN, you will find employment opportunities in companies in many technical sectors, e.g. in planning offices, specialist companies for the installation and commissioning of technical systems.

You will also take the exam for the internationally recognized Basic Certificate in Project Management (GPM) ®. The certification exam takes place at our cooperation partner alfatraining and is conducted by PM-ZERT (certification body of the GPM Deutsche Gesellschaft für Projektmanagement e. V.). V.).

Didactic concept

Your lecturers are highly qualified both professionally and didactically and will teach you from the first to the last day (no self-study system).

You will learn in effective small groups. The courses usually consist of 6 to 25 participants. The general lessons are supplemented by numerous practical exercises in all course modules. The practice phase is an important part of the course, as it is during this time that you process what you have just learned and gain confidence and routine in its application. The final section of the course involves a project, a case study or a final exam.

 

Virtual classroom alfaview®

Lessons take place using modern alfaview® video technology - either from the comfort of your own home or at our premises at Bildungszentrum. The entire course can see each other face-to-face via alfaview®, communicate with each other in lip-sync voice quality and work on joint projects. Of course, you can also see and talk to your connected trainers live at any time and you will be taught by your lecturers in real time for the entire duration of the course. The lessons are not e-learning, but real live face-to-face lessons via video technology.

 

The courses at alfatraining are funded by Agentur für Arbeit and are certified in accordance with the AZAV approval regulation. When submitting a Bildungsgutscheinor Aktivierungs- und Vermittlungsgutschein, the entire course costs are usually covered by your funding body.
Funding is also possible via Europäischen Sozialfonds (ESF), Deutsche Rentenversicherung (DRV) or regional funding programs. As a regular soldier, you have the option of attending further training courses via Berufsförderungsdienst (BFD). Companies can also have their employees qualified via funding from Agentur für Arbeit (Qualifizierungschancengesetz).
