AU Unplugged Schedule !
Take a break from AU and experience a different kind of learning—attend a AU Unplugged session. As I mentioned in several earlier posts, AU Unplugged is our version of an unconference, where content and schedule is driven by attendees.
After 7700 votes were cast, we then obtained confirmation from submitters that they indeed are interested in leading a session. Having done that, we are now ready to publish the schedule.

More information on each session can be found on the AU website.
As it turns out, approximately one-third of the sessions will be led by folks who did an AU Unplugged session last year. Another third of the sessions are done by AU speakers who plan to “deep dive” into the topic of their regular AU session. Although I am not sure where the other third comes from, I can say that we are excited to have so many new presenters and topics.
Here is a short list of some of the sessions that will make up AU Unplugged this year:
- Customizing AutoCAD Ribbons [Andy Warren, Striker]
- Autodesk & Visualization: A Discussion of best Practices [Phil Read, HNTB]
- Digital Tools – Which, Where, and How [Jim Balding, WATG]
- The Promise of BIM [Jay B. Zallan, Gensler]
- Revit MEP: How’s it Going [David Butts, Advanced Solutions]
- Beyond Implementation Tools and Techniques for CAD Managers [Steve Bennett, US CAD]
AU Unplugged is scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday in the Casanova Rooms (603,604,606)—away from regular AU classes—and sessions start every hour on the hour. This schedule does not line up with the regular AU sessions, but it does give you the opportunity to mingle in a less crowded environment with your fellow unconference participants.
