The program addresses the specific needs of Postal employees designing and documenting mail-processing plants with the tools available in Autodesk Map 3D 2009 and PostalCAD 2009. The instructor provides real world working examples and methods to professionally design or document a plant layout. Students then explore the material and investigate the new techniques as a group, or at their own pace. This hands-on course will take students through the process of basic plant layout and design by mastering the following application areas.
