You're right to all the above, Tom.

Seeing that I don't follow him around to know the total accuracy of his
work, I can say this.

He went to a local Junior college and got his associates in drafting,
then went to Tempe Ariz, ( ITT Technical Institute) and graduated from
there with an engineering certificate, And a year ago, while working
with the Maff-Stack system, he was working in training for his BA in
Architectural Practice. But due to getting married and making some life
changes and going to Iraq with his Reserve Unit, , He hasn't finished
his total courses yet. 5 yrs for a MA is too long, so he's going to
settle for the BA.then maybe an MA down the road.

meanwhile, on this project, he did extensive work in the Ft.
Lauderdale area correcting and making design changes to the MafStack
system there, and worked as a "drafting engineer" . however in the
office, he DID a lot of work on the System as a "Design Engineer" ,
but in Ft. Lauderdale working on location, he was a "Drafting
Engineer". And will soon begin the task of working to fulfill his
architectural degree.

He's well versed with the AutoCAD CAD/CAM as well as old school
drafting boards.

Even though he doesn't have any call or reason to use a draft board, he
still does some fun and minor projects on it, just to keep what he
calls "the touch". He says, it's kind of like using a slide ruler. Nice
to know how, even if you never do use it.


That's pretty well it, in a nutshell.

If he's into engineering, why would he ever want to be an architect?
That's the artsy world, versus the technical world!

By the way, according to ITT's website, there is no "engineering
certificate". Care to try again?

When I went to his graduation he recieved an engineering certificate.

Maybe the cirriculum has changed.

One of the guys I use learned CAD at ITT somewhere in CA. They have a
CAD program that results in an associates degree (AAS).

There are a couple of different Engineering Technology Certificate"
programs. Both ITT and Community Colleges in California offer them.

ITT Technical Institute does not offer any "engineering Technology
Certificate". I agree that a lot of CC's do, but ITT does NOT. I know
someone who has an AAS from there, and also here is their curriculum:

They don't offer anything at ANY of their campuses other than that.
