After failing with an unstructured computer-aided drafting/ design CAD/D program, Bechtel changed to a structured training program. Five considerations are presented here: teach CAD/D to engineers, not engineering to CAD/D experts; keep the program flexible enough to avoid rewriting due to fast technology evolution; pace information delivery; and rote learning of sequences only works if the students have a conceptual model first. On the job training is necessary, and better monitoring systems to test the OJT are needed. One such test is presented.
