Course Description
Learn the fundamentals of SOLIDWORKS Drawings and develop the skills to create clear, accurate, and professional engineering documentation from your 3D models
This course provides a structured, beginner-friendly introduction to technical drawings, teaching you:
- the essential tools
- drawing views
- annotations
- and dimensioning techniques
used in engineering and manufacturing.
This isn't a course where you simply watch drawing features being demonstrated. You'll create engineering drawings alongside the instructor, complete practical exercises, and work through examples that reinforce every concept. Each lesson is designed to help you gain hands-on experience while understanding the purpose and best practices behind every drawing tool.
You'll go beyond learning how to place dimensions on a drawing. You'll understand:
- how and when to create different drawing views
- add annotations
- apply dimensions correctly
- generate section and detail and other views
- organize drawing sheets
- and produce clear technical documentation ready for manufacturing.
By the end of the course, you'll know not only how to create SOLIDWORKS drawings, but also how to communicate design intent effectively through professional engineering documentation.
As a Udemy bestselling SOLIDWORKS instructor, I've helped more than 50,000 students worldwide build practical SOLIDWORKS skills through clear explanations, hands-on exercises, and examples. My teaching focuses on helping students understand both the software tools and the engineering principles behind creating high-quality technical drawings.

Alen Oletic
I’m a mechanical engineer, CAD instructor, and course creator with a Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering.
Before becoming an online instructor, I worked in mechanical design, including designing welding resistance machines and other mechanical systems. This practical engineering experience helped me understand not only how CAD tools work, but also how they are used in real engineering and manufacturing environments.
Over the years, I have taught more than 50,000 students around the world and received over 3,000 reviews with an average rating of 4.6 stars. I have also created 3 bestselling courses on Udemy, helping students learn SOLIDWORKS, prepare for certification exams, and build practical CAD skills.
My teaching style is step-by-step, clear, and project-based. I focus on helping beginners understand what to learn first, how to build strong CAD foundations, and how to apply SOLIDWORKS tools in real modeling situations.
I know how confusing CAD can feel when you are just starting out. That is why my goal is to make complex tools easier to understand and help students gain confidence through structured lessons, practical examples, and real projects.
Whether you want to learn SOLIDWORKS from scratch, improve your modeling skills, or prepare for certification, my courses are designed to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

It covers all the features of 2d drawings in a very simple manner
By Atharva Mahesh Raut on 6/19/2026
I found the course really detailed. I like how different methods of doing a single task have been explored covering multiple features.
By Nick Cook on 1/26/2026
I really liked the pace. its an efficient way to cover a lot of tools.
By Øyvind Boberg on 11/29/2025
It's fine explaining details I otherwise woud have used long time searching for. On the negative side, the sound is variating a little between the videos. This is not a big issue, but somewhat anoying.
