Engineering Drafting & Technical Design skills assessment
Drafters and technical designers turn engineers' ideas into accurate documents. This scorecard covers CAD skills, standards, checking, collaboration and file management.
- 10 skills to score
- 1–10 scale on every skill
- 5 starting levels
The 10 Engineering Drafting & Technical Design skills you can score
These are the default Engineering Drafting & Technical Design skills in SkillScorer. Each one is scored from 1 to 10 for every engineer, and you can edit, remove or add skills at any time.
2D and 3D CAD Drafting
Produces accurate, well-organised drawings and models in the office's standard software.
Drawing Standards and Conventions
Applies dimensioning, symbols and title block standards consistently.
Interpreting Engineering Sketches
Converts marked-up sketches and verbal instructions into correct drawings.
Detailing and Fabrication Drawings
Prepares clear detail and shop drawings that fabricators can build from.
Bills of Materials and Schedules
Compiles accurate part lists and schedules directly from drawings.
Revision and Document Control
Manages revisions and issue records so only current drawings are used.
Self-Checking and Quality
Checks own drawings before submission and corrects errors.
Coordination with Engineers
Asks the right questions and keeps designers informed of progress.
Speed and Productivity
Completes drawings efficiently without cutting corners.
Continuous Learning
Keeps up with software updates and industry standards.
Levels included with Engineering Drafting & Technical Design
Engineering Drafting & Technical Design starts with 5 levels, which SkillScorer calls “Seniority Level” for engineering, so engineers can be grouped and compared fairly. Rename, reorder or replace them at any time.
- Trainee Drafter
- Drafter
- Senior Drafter
- Design Leader
- Design Manager
How Engineering Drafting & Technical Design works in SkillScorer
Score
Each engineer in a team is scored on the Engineering Drafting & Technical Design skills in the Skills Matrix: tap a cell, type a score, and it saves itself.
Compare
Rank engineers, compare two side by side, or compare your teams against each other to see exactly where the strengths and gaps are.
Track
Scores are kept year after year, so you can see who is improving and which Engineering Drafting & Technical Design skills need attention. Reports also follow each team lead's team.
Engineering Drafting & Technical Design scorecard: common questions
What skills does the Engineering Drafting & Technical Design scorecard include?
SkillScorer's Engineering Drafting & Technical Design scorecard covers 10 skills: 2D and 3D CAD Drafting, Drawing Standards and Conventions, Interpreting Engineering Sketches, Detailing and Fabrication Drawings, Bills of Materials and Schedules, Revision and Document Control, Self-Checking and Quality, Coordination with Engineers, Speed and Productivity and Continuous Learning. Each one comes with a written description of what it measures, and you can edit, rename, remove or add skills to suit your organisation.
How are engineers scored in Engineering Drafting & Technical Design?
Every engineer is scored from 1 to 10 on each skill (1 = Poor, 5 = Average, 10 = Elite), one team and year at a time. Scores autosave in the Skills Matrix, and the 18 built-in reports turn them into rankings, radar charts, skill gaps and year-on-year trends.
Which levels come with Engineering Drafting & Technical Design?
Engineering Drafting & Technical Design starts with these levels (called “Seniority Level” in the app): Trainee Drafter, Drafter, Senior Drafter, Design Leader and Design Manager. They are just a starting point, so you can rename, reorder or replace them.
Can I change the Engineering Drafting & Technical Design skills and wording?
Yes. The skills, levels and labels are all editable per organisation. In engineering the app talks about engineers, teams and team leads, and you can change any of those words too.
