We explore formulas, family type parameters, materials, and even dabble in some trigonomic functions. So be sure to buckle your seat belt. You are in for an exciting ride!

We all hate interop, let's not hide it. Instead, let's look at the big picture of why and what teams need, what makes it difficult and why, and how it can be approached. Amongst other issues, we will discuss: the impacts of sharing files versus sharing data, what tool ecosystem to use and how finding the right tool for the job usually results in a million 'right' tools doing a million jobs, and how to integrate workflows which require more specialised skill sets. For these points, we will zoom in with specific case studies from our work at Grimshaw, illustrating various problems faced, approaches used, what didn't work, and how we solved the issue. We'll also cover the tools we use and the history of the tools we've built to accomplish this.

Years ago, there were only 2 ways to become productive with Autodesk® software: you could go to a training class or hire a trainer to teach you. With cuts in companies' traditional training budgets, major corporations are shifting training resources away from costly traditional instructor-led training to cost-effective solutions. We are in the middle of a significant shift in instructional methods and delivery vehicles. This roundtable session reviews the broad spectrum of training options that are available, from traditional books and instructor-led classroom training to flipped classrooms using interactive eBooks, web-based synchronous and asynchronous videos, discussion forums, and even social media. If you are a leading-edge innovator, corporate training manager, trainer, industry consultant, or simply an Autodesk product user, join us in discussing trends and analyzing real-life successes and the challenges of maintaining your competitive edge by implementing diverse training solutions.
