The Land-Training.com course is the most accessible and well-structured introduction to Civil engineering I’ve come across. The combination of concise videos, clear explanations, and practical multiple-choice questions made it easy to retain what I learned and apply it immediately. Whether you're just starting out or need a refresher, this course gives you a solid foundation in a short amount of time.

The Workflow Process videos from LandTraining.com taught me how to approach new Civil 3D projects with a structured process, from initial research (due diligence) to complete site development.

Thanks to the Land-Training.com workflow series, I now understand the full procedure for tackling new civil engineering projects. It starts with the due diligence phase (researching the project's jurisdiction, zoning regulations, setbacks, and maximum impervious area) and continues through each design stage: existing conditions plan, site layout, grading, septic (when applicable), hydrologic analysis with appropriate BMPs, and erosion control. The clear explanations and real-world workflows in the videos helped me streamline the entire process and apply it confidently in my daily work.

Before discovering Land-Training.com, my drafting process in Civil 3D was slower and less structured. Their videos helped me understand the complete workflow for taking on new projects—from conducting due diligence (researching jurisdiction, zoning, setbacks, and maximum impervious area) to developing each plan set: existing conditions, site layout, grading, septic systems (when applicable), hydrologic design with appropriate BMPs, and erosion control. The clear, step-by-step guidance and practical shortcuts have become part of my daily workflow, saving me hours each week and improving the quality and consistency of my deliverables.

I graduated from KSU back in December 2024. Even though I had a few years of full-time engineering experience under my belt when I started with Civilogistix, it was clear there were many useful tips & tricks to still learn. Through the Land-Training.com process, I was able to practice with & commit to memory, a variety of drafting habits which I hope will stay with me throughout my career.

I was exposed to a variety of new skills & commands while using Land-Training.com due to custom LISP commands as well as base Civil3D features. After watching the many videos available and completing drafting exercises, I can sufficiently knock out more of the design process both faster and smarter than before. A few examples are  

  • Creating a corridor from an alignment & an assembly 
  • Utilize feature lines and conceptual grading labels to efficiently get a preliminary takeoff created
  • Delineate hydrology basins & calculate the Time of Concentration
  • Wire-frame a preliminary site plan
  • Or even something as simple as how to properly do a survey conversion

    I highly recommend and applaud the use of the Land-Training.com system. It is a fantastic medium to not only test your own skills, but to also reveal where your strengths and weaknesses are in order to become an even better designer & engineer.
