A software institute run like an engineering office
ArchTech Institute teaches the software stack of the construction and energy industries — online, on licensed seats, by engineers who use these tools for paying clients.
OUR STORY
Why we started
ArchTech began in 2017 with one AutoCAD batch and a frustration: engineering graduates were leaving university fluent in theory and unemployable in practice, because no one had taught them the software their first job would run on.
Nine years later the same idea, scaled: 15 courses across electrical and civil software, taught in purpose-built labs by practising engineers, with 2,400+ students trained and hired into design offices, consultancies, solar companies and Gulf BIM teams.
We are deliberately not an online academy. Software skill grows fastest with an instructor at your shoulder, a licensed seat, and a batch small enough that your file gets reviewed every session. That's the whole model.
HOW WE TEACH
Four rules every course follows
Real files, not exercises
Partner firms supply anonymised project files — a hospital's electrical model, a housing scheme's drawing set — so class practice looks like the job.
Instructors who practise
Everyone teaching here bills clients in the same software they teach. When the industry's standards move, our courses move the same month.
Published fees, small batches
Every fee is on the website. Batches cap at 12–20 depending on the course, because lab time with an instructor is the product.
Portfolio over paper
Certificates are issued and verifiable, but every course is built backwards from a deliverable an employer can open and judge.
FACULTY
Learn from people who do the work
Every instructor practises what they teach — and their credentials are on the record.
