miyabhai101 Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 (edited) Background, I work at an Arts organization in programming. I want to learn Vectorworks for a few reasons. I want to be able to include concept to scale drawings of ideas I am pitching. I also think it would be a valuable skill to have on a resume. My company has only one license of Vectorworks and it's not in my department and is not accessible to me. Nor can I afford Vectorworks out of pocket on my own. Any advice? 9apps apk cartoon hd Edited December 16, 2019 by miyabhai101 Quote Link to comment
EAlexander Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) How about making a pitch to your supervisor about them (the company) buying it for you and the benefits that could bring to the organization. Edited December 16, 2019 by EAlexander Quote Link to comment
SeanOSkea Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 The Academic licence for Vectorworks is free for a year while you are a student. You might actually save some money by enrolling part time in a technical or community college. Some might offer course in Vectorworks. Possibly even online. While you are a student you can get the academic licence. Of course you'll have to pay the cost of the classes that you take but at a community college that will likely be far less than the cost of a retail version of VW. And if you complete the courses you'll have some credits and training to add to your resume too. Once you have learned you can upgrade to a professional licence when you have the skills to get paid for your work. Or as Evan suggests, get an employer to purchase it. Both Evan and I have VW tutorials on YouTube here are some links. -Sean https://www.youtube.com/user/evanbrooklyn/videos https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxZ9RjFVOfJUVAm7L7UkPlw?view_as=subscriber https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIkBQ-4evpWjPYg2TJVMsZw Quote Link to comment
