The ADN team delivered around 50 classes at AU 2007, and we're currently planning on delivering around the same number at AU 2008.
(A quick note on the classes I'll be delivering: I'm planning to deliver a class on programming AutoCAD with F#, as well as delivering the "There's more to DWG than AutoCAD®" and "Enriching your DWF™" classes from last year.)
Joseph Wurcher, manager of AU Program Development and author of BLAUG, asked me to pass on the below "last call for presenters" to this blog's readership.
Two words: submissions deadline. If you’re considering joining our outstanding slate of speakers at Autodesk University 2008, you’ll have to act by April 27, 2008.
Please submit your presentation proposal(s) online, as soon as possible, at the Call for Papers website.
Whenever we stop to analyze why Autodesk University has become so hugely successful, one thing is clear: the excellent presentations from experts are a big, big factor.
The time for us to assemble the AU 2008 faculty, who are without a doubt the most critical component of the overall AU experience, is nearly over. So if you:
- Have the communication skills, technical expertise, and relevant experience...
- Want to share your knowledge of a favorite topic—from tips and tricks and sales techniques to new business opportunities such as sustainable design...
- Are motivated to bring success to design professionals and their organizations...
- Want to demonstrate your expertise to several thousand Autodesk customers, partners, and employees, thereby promoting your business success...
... Then we want to hear from you—now!
A speaker honorarium is also provided.
Joseph
It would be great to see more "Customization & Programming" classes from readers of this blog, for instance. See you in Vegas! :-)
