Hello everyone.

   I am a high school teacher. I teach Architectural Drafting. My students are between the ages of 15 and 18. I instruct my students in the use of LibreCad, FreeCad, Autocad, and sometimes Autodesk Inventor and SweetHome3D (but not very much).

   I am not a very sophisticated user of CAD programs, and I would like to become so. I would like to learn Blender and FreeCad Arch. I have only really used FreeCad for mechanical types of things, using the Part Design workbench. I'm looking for resources for quickly learning FreeCad Arch and Blender. Thank you!

   There is a lot of resources, e.g.-

   • The classic tutorial - https://wiki.freecad.org/Arch_tutorial/en

   • Arch Workbench wiki - https://wiki.freecad.org/Arch_Workbench

   and

   • Manual:BIM modeling wiki (the example model is simpler) - https://wiki.freecad.org/Manual:BIM_modeling

   • The BIM WorkBehch wiki ('extension' of Arch) - https://wiki.freecad.org/BIM_Workbench

   and

   FreeCAD Discussion sub-forum dedicated for the Arch / BIM / Draft development

   • https://forum.freecad.org/viewforum.php?f=23&sid=cd8178b96bf5c5c14a0fdc34f3b8d6db

   Good luck :)
