SketchUp Pro is the 3D drawing program for Windows and Mac that allows you to create 3D designs for interiors, buildings, structures and landscapes, among others, in a very short time.
In the intensive two-day advanced SketchUp training course, we cover more advanced functions of the 3D modelling programme. You can start with this if you have completed the basic training for this.

What am I learning?
The SketchUp Pro advanced training can be followed after finishing the basic training. In this training, you will deepen the model you made in the beginner training. At the end of this module, you will be able to add multiple materials, work with shadows and light and create a semi-professional model in your own style. It is also possible to animate a model through scenes.
In this training we will discuss, among other things:
- Adding shadows and lighting
- Animating a model with scenes
- Applying different extensions
- Visualising details
- Working with layers
- Viewing and editing model structure
- Deepening symmetry
- Dynamic components
- Creating and applying styles
- Face-me components
- Converting 2D image to 3D drawing
- Landscapes
- Solid tools
It takes practice and study to develop these skills and we are happy to help you with that in this training.
What can I do after SketchUp Pro for advanced training?
Here are some examples of what you can do after following this training:
- Architectural design: You can create complex architectural models with detailed interiors, custom furniture designs, and realistic materials. These can be used for client presentations, construction plans or building visualisations.
- Urban design and planning: You can model urban environments with streets, buildings, parks and infrastructure. This can be useful for city planning and visualising urban development projects.
- Landscape architecture: Advanced SketchUp users can create detailed landscape designs, including gardens, parks and natural environments. This is useful for landscape architects and gardeners.
- Product design: If you are interested in product design, you can create complex 3D models of products using advanced modelling techniques. This is useful for industrial designers.
- Visualisation and animation: You can create animations to bring your designs to life, such as virtual tours of buildings, moving mechanical parts of machines, or animated infographics.
- Renderings and presentations: Advanced rendering techniques can be used to create realistic images of your models. This is essential for creating compelling presentations and marketing materials.
- Collaboration: After the training, you will be able to collaborate with others on shared projects by effectively sharing SketchUp files and working to collaboration standards. This is especially important in professional environments. Top of form
In short, after this training, you will be able to use SketchUp Pro for many applications and create impressive 3D models and visualisations for (semi) professional use.
Training material
To participate in this training programme, you will need your own laptop and a licence of SketchUp Pro. A SketchUp licence costs €285 excl. vat per year. When you purchase the licence via ITCAD, you will have a Dutch-speaking contact for support. For example, you get support for installation problems or problems that occur while using the software. It is also possible to buy a trial version of SketchUp Pro first. Please note that this version can only be used for a limited time. Click here for the SketchUp Pro trial version.
Blended learning
The SketchUp Pro advanced training is a combination of an online learning environment to prepare for the two intensive, classroom teaching days. There is a minimum of 2 weeks between the lessons, so you have plenty of time to practice and study all the material learned independently. Of course, the trainer is also available to you in case of interim questions. Before you start with the classroom training days, you first complete the online training. This way, you will have mastered the basic skills. On average, the study load in preparation for the classroom training days is 6-7 hours. After final registration, you will receive the login details for the online learning environment no later than 2 weeks before the start of the course.
Minimum & maximum number of participants
Trainings have a minimum and maximum number of participants. As soon as there are enough participants, we will let you know whether the training will take place. If a training course does not take place, your registration will be transferred to the next starting date. Nice and easy. The small groups guarantee personal attention for you as participant.
Certificate
You will receive a SintLucas NEXT certificate at the end of the training (upon satisfactory completion of the final assignment and sufficient attendance). The SketchUp Pro training offer is a collaboration between Cibap Next and Eurosafe Solutions. Eurosafe Solutions is one of the authorised training centres of SketchUp Netherlands and the only one in the northeast of the Netherlands. The SketchUp Pro trainings are always given by a certified trainer of SketchUp Pro Netherlands.
