The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) CADD Office provides training for Computer Aided Drafting & Design (CADD) software to support users in the design process of FDOT projects.

The following training courses include guides, datasets, and videos intended for:

  • FDOT CADD Regional (Instructor‑Led) Training
  • FDOT’s Learning Curve CADD Certification Program (Online Training)
  • FDOT Project‑Based Training
  • Self‑Help by CADD Users

Specialized training is also provided through the American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) of Florida via FDOTConnect Training Lab sessions .
