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 an intensive two-day training course, we will cover the functions of the programme and you will be able to translate your ideas into a simple 3D model. The training is suitable for the absolute beginner as well as for anyone who has already had a go at working with it.

What am I learning?
We start by drawing simple shapes that also cover handy shortcuts and practical tips. After the first day, you will be able to quickly produce a structured model that is easy to modify in the future. But a 3D model alone is not enough. On day two, the focus is on presentation and we show the versatility of this innovative programme. Create your own materials, work with “tags”, create cross-sections, set shadows, create animations, create landscapes, walk through your own design and much more. Furthermore, we pay a lot of attention to the methodology so that the logic of the programme becomes clear. Because there is enough time between training days, you will have enough time to practice and gather all your questions for the second classroom training day.
Among other things, you will work on:
– Setting up template & explaining (using) the workspace
– Draw with various tools
– Process changes in a design
– Creating a construction
– Working with layers
– Styling models and using the material library
– Deploying models from 3D warehouse
– Groups and components
– Exporting models to 2D and 3D

Training materials
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 basic training is a combination of an online learning environment to prepare for the two intensive, classroom training days. We divide these two classroom training days over two weeks, so you have plenty of time to practice and study all the material learned independently in between. 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 4-6 hours. After registration, you will receive the login details for the online learning environment no later than 2 weeks before the start of the training.
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.

It is great that you will invest in your own growth and distinctiveness.
