I remember you posting pictures of a completed building you had designed and bringing up the CAD work. CAD files are compatible with ArcMap, which is a 2d GIS analysis tool and what the certificate program mainly focuses on.
This is all incredibly entry level stuff I'm doing. It looks fancy, but it's really only a couple buttons and basic tool functions. It's exciting to learn though.
@Nathan - I have to learn Python for this stuff eventually. Is it complicated? I've only ever done entry level Qbasic.

it started out easy, its starting to get harder now. im using codeacademy and youtube videos. the khan academy videos are easy. the mit lecutures are boring. i guess it all depends on how much time ya spend doing it
at learning the cadd stuff. i learned the basics of that in high school but didnt do much with it afterwards
