Boost your 3D visual drawing and modelling skills with Sketchup!

SketchUp – Intensive Course

Join our in-person intensive course dedicated entirely to SketchUp, designed for beginners who want to learn practical, real-world 3D modeling skills. This hands-on day will guide you through essential tools, native workflows, and 3D modeling techniques to help you turn ideas into accurate, professional 3D models and presentation layouts.

What You’ll Learn

Introduction & Interface Setup: Setting up SketchUp preferences, navigating the 3D viewport (Orbit, Pan, Zoom), and customizing your toolbars for a faster workflow.

Essential 2D & 3D Modeling Tools: Mastering drawing tools (Line, Rectangle, Circle) and 3D creation features like Push/Pull, Offset, and Follow Me.

Model Organization & Efficiency: Structuring models cleanly using Groups and Components to keep your files manageable, lightweight, and easy to edit.

Materials, Styles & Cameras: Applying custom textures, positioning camera angles, creating section cuts, and saving Scenes to navigate your 3D space effortlessly.

Edits, Revisions & Scale: Precise modeling with the Tape Measure and Scale tools, making quick design updates without rebuilding models from scratch.

Layout & Exporting: Introducing LayOut for creating scaled 2D presentation drawings, dimensioning, and exporting high-resolution images or PDFs for client presentation and print.
