Sorry should have said Free version is 2D only. I did have a play with Google Sketchup, found it a bit wierd, but has some nice downloadable example drawings in 3D and for teaching may be good as its all webby and the kids are down with the web.

I'd have to go along with Chris on this. Talk to companies in the industry you want to be in. Many of the job ads will advise what qualifications they require too. It's no good getting specific qualifications, only to find the industry you want to be in likes other qualifications.
Engineering is an industry that seems to heading back towards apprenticeships. So watch out for openings that way.

Well Started out with PDGS (old ford system) 20 years ago CADDS(Rover, and Ford powertrain) both stopped being use about 1995 moved onto SDRC I-DEAS (Ford, Jaguar and Nissan) which is slowly dying out although Nissan look to be continuing with it at the moment also recently been train on CATIA V5 which most of the Automotive and Aerospace indudtry OME's use although a lot of there suppliers use PRo Engineer wildfire.
I would say you need to look at where you want to go (engineering wise) then look at the most commonly used software in that industry

In my day (old git!) we were using ME10 and ME30 running on Pascal OS! When we 'upgraded', we were running 9 workstations off a 1 gig Unix server which was huge for it's day :lol: How times change.... :lol:
Does ME10 still exist?
When I changes jobs, I was using an early version of AutoCad. That would have been about 23 years ago!
