What Do You Want to Know? Synergis University Offers Industry Tracks

Synergis University 2014 is now less than a month away! There are 40 sessions to choose from, so to make it easy for you, we have created industry tracks to help you find the information to keep you ahead in your industry.

Manufacturing Design: 

When manufacturing products innovation and timing is everything.  Getting your products to market before your competitors is important.  Getting products that are predictable and profitable is necessary.  Have you ever asked yourself:

• How do you get to market faster while providing high-quality products?
• How do you test your designs and how much does it cost your profits?
• Are there bottlenecks in your design process or manufacturing line?
• What tools do I already have that I am not maximizing to help me design and sell my products?

Whether you are a user or a manager, this track offers sessions that will help

you work more efficiently and help you stay ahead.  Learn more on our Manufacturing: Digital Prototyping Track page.
Some sessions that are offered in this track include:

• Designing with Confidence: Best Practices for Applying Simulation – John Twerdok
• Autodesk 360 Cloud Services for Manufacturers – Sam Antos
• Quote-to-Design Automation – What are the best tools? – Daryl Price
• PLM: “What’s it all about?” – Jamie Scherer
• Engineering on My Tablet – Jim Swain

Building Design and Construction:

Building design is not as simple as it used to be.  Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a term used often to describe a process, but what does that really mean?  Join us at Synergis University 2014 to hear customers that are utilizing BIM in everyday workflows and how and why they incorporated BIM to inspire collaboration earlier in the design process and win more business.
Learn how the latest technologies, techniques and strategies can help you to deliver successful projects from your peers, Autodesk experts, and the entire Synergis team. Topics include how to:

• More effectively improve communication with stakeholders
• Streamline workflows
• Expand toolsets and benefit from a more consistent user experience
• Access cloud services through Autodesk® Subscription
• Implement more BIM into your workflow
• Manage your documents and data
• Promote greater control and efficiency

Some of the sessions in the Building and Construction BIM Track include:
