AutoCAD Point Cloud Essentials: a new one-day course at The Survey School

Published: 15 Oct 2025

The Survey School has announced the launch of a new one-day course, aimed at new entrants to the geospatial sector. The new AutoCAD Point Cloud Essentials Course will run for the first time on 3rd December 2025.

AutoCAD Point Cloud Essentials, delivered in partnership with Technical BIM Studio, is designed to equip participants with practical skills for working with point cloud data in AutoCAD. The one-day course is described as ideal for existing users who are finding they are not using the AutoCAD package to its full advantage. The one-day course can be added on to the two-day AutoCAD for Surveying course as a third day or can be attended as a standalone for those who have already completed the two-day course.

What does the new AutoCAD Point Cloud Essentials course cover?

The course content covers point cloud basics, checking and validation, point cloud manipulation, digitising from point cloud and drawing quality checking and delivery. Find out more about the course content here.

Currently, the plan is to hold the course bi-monthly in 2026. Numbers are strictly limited to just six people for each one, guaranteeing an excellent tutor to student ratio.
