Time to Harvest All Those AU2010 Classes!


. Click the Squirrel to go to AU Online

It’s time once again to go into squirrel mode, and harvest all those very useful Revit classes that are to be found on Autodesk University Online! Last year I reported that the main problem was with the actual screencasts and the extremely poor quality of the sound recordings. The later Virtual sessions and repeats were a much better quality (after they fixed the poor sound quality on a few of the early sessions) but you could get into classes and it did work.

I mused that if Autodesk learn anything from AU2009, I hope it’s was to find better sound engineers and to create far more virtual sessions, for later downloading by users who want save the planet, or just can’t afford to travel to Las Vegas.


This year for many AU2010 Virtual was just awful, but at last one can log in and harvest all that good stuff that should have been available during AU2010.

Never mind all the bells and whistles, come on Autodesk just give use during AU2010 what you supply us with weeks after it, full access to the material on demand too download. 

So go too it my little Revit-Heads, and grab those:-

Handouts & Presentation material in Word, PowerPoint and adobe pdf format
Example files and Datasets
Screencasts and Podcasts and
AU Virtual sessions


If the AUGI forum experience has taught us users anything, it is don't bank on the material being there when you want it later. Harvest them now!

The recorded sessions I have watched so far are of good video quality. But after downloading some session of not very interesting content it pays to read the material first.

The structural classes are pretty limited, and to be honest not that great based on the materials uploaded

I haven't really come across anything for Structures that has wowed me.

Some good stuff for Arch & MEP though

Any good finds yourself?
