Autodesk University 2023 Proposals

We are back in Las Vegas this year and “live” once again. The call for proposals for Autodesk University 2023 ended on May 15, 2023. This year I submitted 5 proposals each of which are shown below. Look at each one and see if it is something you may be interested in seeing at Autodesk University 2023. The biggest change this year is I now work for Autodesk. I am a Content Designer on the Desktop Connector team and responsible for the help content and how to communicate that effectively to customers.

Unlocking the mystery behind the Desktop Connector will provide you with an inside look at what I have learned over the past year as a content writer for the product. We will cover the differences between the 15x versions and 16x versions of the connector as well as cover how to get started and find help using this tool.

The geotechnical classes (one is a lab) will focus on how to use the Geotechnical Modeler in Civil 3D to incorporate geotechnical BIM into your Civil 3D workflow.

At Autodesk, we are continuing to develop our underground capabilities using geotechnical information by incorporating the ground data directly in Infraworks, Civil 3D, and Recap. Civil 3D contains the geotechnical modeler which can import geotechnical data directly into Civil 3D. We can then take that data and display in a profile view and export it to Infraworks for a presentation.

Are you an AutoCAD user and want to start learning Civil 3D? Making your move to Civil 3D is the class for you. The advantage you have is that Civil 3D is built upon AutoCAD therefore all of the AutoCAD commands will work within Civil 3D. There is a big difference though, so keep that in mind while learning how to use the Civil tools provided within C3D.

Check out this learning pathway from Autodesk on how to get started using Civil 3D.

Have a great rest of the week wherever in the World you may be! Give me a thumbs up if you want to see any of these classes live later this year at AU2023.

Until next month, Sam
