Announcement
September 24, 2014

Autodesk University is at Mandalay Bay this year in Las Vegas, NV on December 2 through 4. If you have been to AU before, you know that it is a powerful event that helps you become more productive and efficient in designing. However, some additional benefits include:

  • Learning the latest industry trends
  • Over 650 training classes available (many are hands-on labs too)
  • Free certification testing
  • Connect with your peers and our team to discuss opportunities for growth
  • Network and meet like-minded people at industry-specific events

A Tailored Experience:

Need help deciding which of the 650 classes are appropriate for you? Autodesk has provided some guidance with a Tailored Experience. By choosing one of these industry tracks, Autodesk will automatically fill in key sessions for about half of the conference so you won’t miss them. You can of course choose different sessions, but this will give you a starting point.
The Tailored Experiences include the following industries:
