DataCAD Training Testimonials
The results are in...
"I came away with many new tools for my tool bag and a MUCH clearer grasp of
the tools I thought I was using well. There's stuff in there
I didn't even know about!"
- Toby Kelley, Pat Kelley Builder, Inc.,
Reddick, Florida
"Just a note to say how much I enjoyed the class in Atlanta. You have inspired
me to move from regular 3D to Smart Walls. With the work slowdown in
the Residential Design arena I will use this time to charge my batteries
and move forward to be ready when, hopefully, it all comes roaring back."
- Thomas C. Wade, President American
Institute of Building Design North Carolina Society
"Thank you for hosting the users' group meeting. I came away with some
very useful items. XREFs are something I just never could get a clear
handle on. I have a better understanding of how to use them now.
Driving 3 hours each way was well worth it."
- Skipp Jackman, Boca Raton,
Florida
"I just wanted to thank you again for coming to Florida
and presenting the seminar. I know I came away with a lot more knowledge
and understanding of DataCAD. I have been using DataCAD since 1990 and
I know that I have just been scratching the surface of its capabilities."
- Wharton L. Donaldson, Architect, Ponte
Vedra Beach, Florida
"I wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed the DataCAD seminar that you
put on in Ft. Worth yesterday. The information that you presented was
just what I needed to take my use of DataCAD to a higher level. I will
recover the cost of the seminar very quickly by using the information
that you presented. Keep up the good work."
- David R. Lamb, Architect, Texarkana,
Texas
