"We can design it! Yes, we can!"

"AED programs impart the foundational principles of drafting and design in architecture, mechanical, electrical, and structural detailing, and surveying and mapping careers. These programs also assist in the completion of career goals and aspirations of a diverse contingency in multi-disciplined fields while combining life-long practices with the latest technologies.

The adage 'Never draw more in the first half of the day than you can erase in the second half of the day' unites 'We can design it! Yes, we can!'"
