Description: The Certificate of Completion (CCL) in Interior Design Technology is designed to provide the informational, attitudinal, and technical skills required for an entry-level position as a Computer Aided Drafting (CAD) operator in an Interior Design or related office. Computer-aided design using AutoCAD, Revit, Sketchup, and the Adobe Creative Suite forms the core of this program. An Associate in Applied Science (AAS) in Interior Design and an Associate in Applied Science (AAS) in Architectural Technology is also available. Please check with your local college for program availability.
