Training

CivilTraining, LLC offers a variety of instructor-led training programs on-site or from facilities in three states: New Jersey, New York and Virginia. We believe strongly in the value derived from live interaction between students and the instructor that can only be experienced in classes of this type and not duplicated in web-based programs.


Current Course and Class Offerings                Available Course Descriptions


Hands-On Training
The flagship of our training services is our hands-on training. Offered either on-site or at our facilities, our hands-on courses are based on a modular approach that allows us to tailor classes to individual client needs and objectives. Hands-on classes provide the student with the opportunity to master application tasks under the direct assistance of the instructor; students will encounter questions and difficulties in working with the solutions being taught, and the hands-on experience allows them to deal with these questions and issues with the instructor's guidance. Hands-on classes can accommodate up to ten students for most classes, with the exact limit determined by course content. Class duration is from one to three days.

Portable Training Lab

Hands-on Training from CivilTraining, LLC can utilize our second generation portable training lab. Comprised of workstation class computers with 21-inch monitors, the portable training lab provides a comfortable learning environment for students without the need to work on the condensed keyboard and display of a laptop, yet retains a small footprint that makes the lab suitable for use in most conference rooms. Our second generation lab consists of ten workstations running Windows® 7 64-Bit, configured with 16 GB of RAM and NVIDIA Quadro FX 1 GB graphics cards. The CivilTraining, LLC portable training lab is configured with its own licensing and data server, including Autodesk® Vault capabilities for AutoCAD® Civil 3D® and Vault Collaboration training. The portable lab simplifies setup of on-site training, eliminating the need to move client workstations for training, or to borrow or deplete the client's license pool. Students are also isolated from their email and other applications during training, but can easily return to their own workstations during breaks to deal with issues that may arise. The CivilTraining, LLC portable training lab also employs classroom management software that permits the instructor to watch each student's progress on a computer adjacent to the instructor's station, permitting the instructor to sense whether students are keeping up with the exercise or may need additional attention.



The workstations in the CivilTraining, LLC portable training lab are monitored and can be controlled with a second computer at the instructor's station, which utilizes classroom monitoring software. The instructor's station can monitor up to 10 student stations, insuring that students are following the course of instruction and not falling behind. This permits the instructor to monitor each student's progress regardless of the room configuration. If necessary, the instructor can take control of a student's station to provide individual instruction, can send a message to the student's screen, or can reproject the student's screen on the classroom projector to illustrate for the class a solution to a problem that the student might encounter.
The entire CivilTraining, LLC portable training lab packs into Pelican® cases for portability and mobilization to a client's site for training. Each workstation arrives in its own case, along with cases for the instructors stations, servers, networking components and projection system. Projectors used by CivilTraining, LLC are matched to the widescreen format of the CAD workstations, insuring that students are able to follow the instructor's clearly, even in bright ambient light environments.

Civil 3D Short Courses
CivilTraining, LLC also offers a series of lecture-based modular courses on Civil 3D, called Civil 3D Short Courses. Civil 3D Short Courses, like other lecture-based classes offered by CivilTraining, LLC are not hands-on, and students do not have computers in front of them. Although not a substitute for hands-on training, Civil 3D Short Courses serve as an effective introduction to AutoCAD Civil 3D in short, easy to assimilate two to three hour sessions. Each Civil 3D Short Course focuses on a particular task within Civil 3D, from navigating the interface, creating and managing Surface, Point, Alignment and other data, through Project Management and on to more advanced topics such as Creating Corridors and Site Grading.
