Enhance Your Skills as a CAD and BIM Operator in Architecture!

The digital transformation in architecture has led to a pivotal shift in responsibilities for CAD and BIM operators. Recognizing this, C&R Corporation is offering free access to archival recordings of their successful online seminars scheduled for April 8 and April 22, 2023. The seminars, titled "Become a CAD & BIM Operator Who Understands Design!" aim to equip professionals in the field with the essential skills needed to excel in a rapidly digitizing environment.

About the Seminars

The seminar series focuses on two primary themes.

- Vol. 3: Understanding the Rules of Drafting and Terms Used in Architecture

This section will deep dive into the necessary drafting rules as per Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS) and architectural nomenclature. The seminar will also cover exam questions from the Architectural CAD certification to provide learners with practical insights.

- Vol. 4: Grasping the Basics of Drafting Methods (1)

This installment will demonstrate how to create detailed floor plans, focusing on the density of drawings. It will build upon the examination requirements for the second level of the Architectural CAD certification.

With advanced AI technology emerging, many CAD/BIM operators worry about being replaced by machines. These seminars remind participants that understanding the subtle intentions behind architectural designs is critical. The ability to translate such insights into actionable plans cannot easily be automated, highlighting the need for continuous professional development in the field.

Expert Instruction

The seminars will feature Kazuo Yasumatsu, a registered architect and seasoned professional in CAD/BIM training. His extensive background spans work in architectural firms, general contractors, and educational institutions, making him a qualified guide for those looking to enhance their skills.

Kazuo Yasumatsu, born in 1956, graduated from Nihon University with a postgraduate degree in engineering. He is an advocate for integrating architectural knowledge into CAD/BIM practices.
