text: how much would a cadd[computer aided drafting&design] yearly certification class cost in a tech. institute?   if you have a undergraduate degree - then i would say, stop wasting money and try some cadd courses in local community colleges or local school's adult programs. last time i checked some tech institute they were charging around 20-30k. with classes in either one, it is your experience which speaks up for itself. so try to get some cheap cad software (turbocad <$50) & practise on your own time. most cadd packages share same old features but are called differently or found in different places.   all the best
