Questions

Which syllabus does the Computer Aided Design Lab course follow?

It follows the AKTU (Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University, Lucknow) B.Tech syllabus for Computer Aided Design Lab. If your own university's syllabus differs, the centre follows your university syllabus.

Will this help in the practical exam and viva?

Yes. Each experiment is explained with its aim, procedure, calculations and result, followed by viva questions and a mock practical.

Is STAAD.Pro taught by experts?

Yes. NDSS Academy teaches AutoCAD and STAAD.Pro professionally, so lab work is done on the same software used in design offices.
