AU 2013 Call for Proposals: Start Preparing Your Proposals
It’s certainly not too early to start thinking about the topics you’d like to present at AU this year. The Call for Proposals opens in just 3 weeks on April 23.
What can you can share with others? What are the new and emerging trends in your industry? Discuss your ideas with your colleagues. Ask them about topics that they would find interesting.
What We’re Looking for This Year
- More advanced classes—In-depth classes that examine a product in detail and teach attendees new and efficient ways to use their Autodesk® software.
- Process and workflow strategies—Classes that show attendees how to use multiple Autodesk® products together and make optimal use of Autodesk design and creation suites. Handoffs within and between products are increasingly important for users.
- Business management solutions—Classes that help attendees improve company workflow, collaboration, and overall efficiency; provide strategies for adopting and implementing new technologies; and share methods for improving concept-to-completion cycles.
We plan to offer 22 tracks and they will be similar to those offered at AU 2012. To clarify the audience for some of this year’s tracks and to better reflect where particular industries are headed, we’ve made a few track name changes:
| AU 2012 | AU 2013 |
| Facilities Management | Building Owners and Operators |
| Utilities and Telecommunications | Utilities |
| Customization and Programming | Developer |
| Digital Entertainment Techniques | Entertainment |
