AU 2009: Benefits That Are Immediate and Tangible

The classes and highly popular hands-on learning labs at AU are always one of the most important reasons to attend the conference. They offer a level of quality that you often don’t find at other professional events.  If you haven’t been to AU before, just ask someone who’s been there.  You can easily connect with them on AU Online via any of the AU social networking links.

But if you're also looking for immediate, tangible benefits that can prove your value to your company, advance your career, or help you land that next job, consider some of these other conference offerings:

• You can sign up in advance for Autodesk Certification preparatory sessions, and then take advantage of free on-site Autodesk Certification Exams.
• Many AEC sessions can earn you continuing education credits (CEUs) through the American Institute of Architects (AIA).
• Most sessions offer a certificate of completion, which can be sent to other professional associations to request continuing education credit.

And this year there’s an added bonus for attending…

Everyone who registers for AU 2009 automatically receives four (4) complimentary AU Virtual Premier Passes to share with colleagues. That’s a $400 value!

So what is AU Virtual? This new three-day web-based learning event coincides with the physical AU 2009 conference in Las Vegas. Not only do your colleagues get access to 60 unique AU Virtual classes with live Q&A, but they also can access all AU 2009 sessions at AU Online after the conference!

Now that’s something worth thinking about.
