ACP Inventor study plan

Build a fully constrained sketch using every geometric constraint type at least once and verify zero degrees of freedom

Create extruded, revolved, and swept features from sketches and edit their parameters to confirm the model rebuilds cleanly

Apply fillets and chamfers to a multi-feature part and resolve any resulting feature errors

Set up a working folder with a template part file configured for your units and material defaults

Construct a multi-body part using separate solid bodies and convert one body into a new component

Create work planes, work axes, and work points derived from geometry rather than the origin, and use them as sketch planes

Model a part using lofts and sweeps with guide rails and verify the resulting geometry against a sketch profile

Diagnose and repair a deliberately broken model by using the sketch doctor and feature error tools

Use parameters and equations to drive at least three dimensions in a part so that changing one value updates the rest

Create a pattern (rectangular, circular, and mirror) and confirm the pattern count is controlled by a parameter

Apply a derived part or derived component workflow and document how the link behaves when the source changes

Build a simple iPart or iFeature table with at least four members and place one member into a test assembly

Place components into an assembly and apply mate, flush, angle, tangent, and insert constraints to fully position them

Use grounded components and constraint limits to model a hinge that moves through a defined range

Create a subassembly and nest it inside a top-level assembly, then verify the bill of materials structure

Run an interference check on an assembly and resolve at least one detected clash

Drive an assembly constraint with a parameter and capture two distinct positional states

Create an assembly pattern of a component and verify the BOM quantity updates correctly

Apply a frame generator or skeletal modeling approach to build a structure from a layout sketch

Use contact sets or a dynamic simulation study to observe motion between two components

Create a drawing from a part and place base, projected, section, and detail views with correct scale

Apply dimensions, hole callouts, and a parts list so the drawing is fully annotated without over-dimensioning

Create a drawing template with a custom title block linked to model properties such as part number and material

Generate a multi-sheet drawing for an assembly including an exploded view and a ballooned parts list

Convert a solid part into sheet metal using the face and flange tools with a defined sheet metal style and bend radius

Create a flat pattern and export it as a DXF, verifying the bend allowance matches the chosen style

Add a punch or cut feature that respects the sheet metal thickness and confirm the flat pattern updates

Produce a sheet metal drawing with a flat pattern view and a bend table

Rebuild a complete part-to-assembly-to-drawing workflow from scratch under a 90-minute time limit

Review every domain's objectives and log any skill that still requires reference material

Complete a timed practice set of mixed-domain questions and record your score by domain

Close remaining gaps by redoing the two weakest exercises from weeks 1 through 7
