Abstract This study examines the proficiency levels of Technical Drafting trainers in Computer-Aided Drawing (CAD) at Libon Agro-Industrial High School. Employing a mixed-methods research approach, the study identifies key demographic characteristics, assesses CAD proficiency across various skills, and highlights perceived gaps in trainers' competencies. The findings reveal that trainers demonstrate intermediate proficiency in technical, design, and teaching skills, while software proficiency and soft skills require significant improvement. Key challenges include resource limitations, such as outdated hardware and software, lack of professional development opportunities, and minimal industry collaboration. Moreover, most trainers struggle with advanced CAD functionalities, particularly 3D modeling. The study underscores the importance of aligning training practices with modern industry demands to improve educational outcomes. Recommendations include organizing regular workshops, increasing resource allocation, fostering industry partnerships, and revising the curriculum to integrate advanced CAD tools and techniques. Addressing these gaps can enhance the effectiveness of CAD instruction and better prepare students for industry demands.
