Yes, SketchUp Pro come with LayOut and although you could follow along with all the modelling techniques it would be beneficial to have a Pro license so that you can follow along with the Layout module too.

No, In fact I would encourage you to take your time. A good way to approach the courses is to watch all of the videos first. Then follow along, you'll find it much easier this way. You can watch and re-watch as many times as you like and you have lifetime access to the courses and course materials.

The SketchUp and LayOut Ultimate Bundle is a beast. Theres the beginners course which is seven 1 hour episodes. Then the Masterclass which is broken up into 4 modules comprising 42 episodes (36 hours of training in total) I try to keep episodes to under 1 hour - some being shorter than this and some being a little longer, but manageable chunks nonetheless. Then theres the 3 asset packs which all have a 1 hour additional training module attached so all in there is 50+ hours of really in depth training from novice to pro.

I think with the Masterclasses it is important that you are at least familiar with basic SketchUp commands. However, I have had complete novices tackle the Masterclass and as I explain fully what I am doing on screen they have had no problem getting to grips with the program.

My course for absolute beginners (Included with the bundle) will take you from opening the program for the very first time and run through every tool and drop down menu with you to get your confidence up ready to tackle the Masterclass. this is also great for those wanting to brush up on all the tool commands and keyboard shortcuts.
