 This course is one of 12 courses in the RAC (River AutoCAD) curriculum. All RAC courses are designed to have three 4-hour training sessions with 3 hours of active online instruction associated with each 4-hour training session.  It is expected that some participants will be able to consume and complete each 4-hour training session within the allotted session and others will require more time and assistance for successful completion. The course includes access to a shared Dropbox, example files, a delayed chat season, and access to on-call assistance for an additional cost.  This course is modular and future RAC courses will be built upon the curriculum taught in this course. A completion exam is also included in the published course cost.  After the successful examination, a participant will be able to schedule and purchase the next level of RAC training from RiverSHARED with affiliated instructors. The completion exam can be administered by RiverSHARED for a cost of $50 without the completion of the course, to allow a participant to skip a course to conserve time and resources.

 This RAC course is supported be non-AutoCAD technical support that is included in the optional AS-1 Course. The AS (AutoCAD Support) course is designed to help the participants have a better understanding of why non-AutoCAD tolls are being used in conjunction with the RAC curriculum.
