Course Overview

The Altium Designer Basic Training Course by ACAD Solutions is a structured, hands-on PCB design programme designed to help participants build a strong foundation in electronic circuit design and printed circuit board (PCB) development.

Whether you’re new to Altium Designer or looking to improve your existing design workflow, this course provides step-by-step guidance on using Altium Designer for schematic capture, component library management, PCB layout, routing, design verification and manufacturing documentation.

Through guided exercises, participants learn how to create PCB design projects, manage schematic components, configure PCB layers and design rules, and prepare essential fabrication files.

The three-day programme covers 19 modules, taking participants from the fundamentals of the Altium Designer environment through to more structured PCB design workflows.

Expected Outcome

Upon completing the course, participants should be able to:

  1. Navigate Altium Designer: Understand the software interface, design environment, project structure and document management.
  2. Create Electronic Schematics: Develop schematic designs using components, electrical connections, net labels and appropriate design practices.
  3. Develop Component Libraries: Create and manage schematic symbols, PCB footprints and integrated component libraries.
  4. Build PCB Layouts: Define board shapes, configure PCB layers and apply component placement techniques.
  5. Apply PCB Design Rules: Configure essential design constraints and understand methods for identifying potential design issues.
  6. Route PCB Connections: Use routing tools and polygon pours to develop functional PCB layouts.
  7. Prepare Manufacturing Outputs: Generate bills of materials (BOM), Gerber files, drill files and supporting PCB fabrication documentation.
  8. Manage Multi-Sheet Projects: Understand schematic hierarchy and organise complex electronic designs across multiple documents.

By the end of the training, participants will have developed a practical understanding of the PCB design process, from initial schematic creation to preparing outputs for manufacturing.
