The AppliCad Academy has been rebuilt from the ground up. Sharper content, better structure, and new modules in the works. Whether you're picking up Roof Wizard for the first time or you've been using it for years — there's something here worth your time.
Included free with every Roof Wizard licence and trial.
The Academy has been refreshed. Even if you've done parts of it before, the content is sharper, better structured, and worth another look.
You've got the software — now you need to know how to actually use it. The Academy takes you through everything in the right order, so you're not piecing it together from YouTube and guesswork. Start at Module 1 and follow it through.
Start at Module 1 →You know your way around a basic model — but Smartlines, material setup, report templates, block cutting? The refreshed modules cover all of it in detail. Most experienced users find they recover hours they didn't know they were losing.
Jump to where it gets interesting →A new estimator on your team needs to be productive fast. Send them to the Academy and they'll have a structured path to follow without you having to sit beside them all week.
Works at their own pace →Log in, pick what you need, and get moving. The Academy is yours to use however it makes sense — work through every module or go straight to the one that solves your problem today.
Your Roof Wizard licence or trial already includes full Academy access. Head to academy.applicad.com and you're in.
Brand new? Start at Module 1. Already comfortable with modelling and want to nail material setup? Jump straight to Module 6. It's your call.
Every exercise has written steps and a video walkthrough. Pause it, rewind it, do it again — no time limit, no one watching over your shoulder.
Each module ends with a short test. Pass with 75% and unlock the next level. Retry as many times as you need — the only pressure is the one you put on yourself.
The refreshed Academy goes further than the original. New exercises, sharper video walkthroughs, and content that reflects how estimators actually work today.
The Academy has been redeveloped from the ground up — cleaner structure, better exercises, and sharper video content throughout. If you did it years ago, it's worth coming back.
Watch, pause, rewind, and repeat. Every exercise has a dedicated video walkthrough so you can see exactly what to do, not just read about it.
A test at the end of each module means you can't just click through. That's a feature, not a bug — it's how you end up with skills that stick.
The first five modules focus entirely on 3D modelling — getting the geometry right before touching a single material. Modules 6 and 7 cover material setup, reports, and wall cladding separately. A dedicated block cutting module is coming soon.
A dedicated block cutting module is in development — covering AppliCad's linear nesting and factory pre-cut workflow. More modules will be added to the Academy as the course grows.
Seen enough? Your licence already includes full Academy access — just register and go.
Access the AcademyI'd been using Roof Wizard for two years but never felt like I was fully in control of it. After completing the Academy modules I realised I'd been doing half the job manually that the software could do for me.
