Free software! Autodesk will provide a free instructor copy of software to each instructor who attends all of the dates of his or her class sessions. (Special note: The Inventor, AutoCAD 3D and Autodesk 3DS Max classes use some material developed under the auspices of the National Science Foundation grant number 0202256.)

Autodesk- Inventor Level 1
This course offers a comprehensive solution to those seeking to enhance their 3D design projects by incorporating Inventor's 3D parametric feature based technology. Designed for those already accomplish at creating 3D models in AutoCAD or other 3D CAD software packages, it brings the faculty member up the learning curve from the basic 3D parametric technology to assembly modeling and finally to part drawings. 21 CPDUs will be granted for attending all three days (21 hours).

Autodesk- Inventor Level 2
This course covers the Autodesk's Inventor software, featuring advanced part modeling with solids, details of the content library, creating assemblies that move, exploded views and animation, assembly modeling and more details on parameters. It is designed for the faculty member who needs to advance and increase knowledge of this technology so as to create new and interesting challenges for the students. 14 CPDUs will be granted for attending both days (14 hours).

AUTODESK INVENTOR: SIMULATION
Learn the fundamental principles and recommended workflows for analyzing designs and creating dynamic simulations of mechanisms using Autodeskhttp://64.107.8.52:8083/ATC/teacher/teacher_training.htm Inventorhttp://64.107.8.52:8083/ATC/teacher/teacher_training.htm Professional 2010. Users learn how to validate digital prototypes by simulating the operation of mechanisms and motorized assemblies. Hands-on exercises representing real-world, industry-specific design scenarios are included. 7 CPDUs will be granted for attending the full day (7 hours).

AUTODESK INVENTOR: STRESS ANALYSIS
Learn how to create loads and constraints, how to run an analysis and analyze results, set-up and run analysis, revise models and stress analysis, interpret results and perform convergence studies. 7 CPDUs will be granted for attending the full day (7 hours).

3ds Max® level 1
This class will introduce the faculty to 3ds max modeling, rendering and animation environments. Those who complete the course will have an understanding of user interface navigation, importing objects from other CAD programs, creating simple objects, using modifiers for modeling and animation, linking and wiring concepts, applying maps and materials, basic lighting concepts, and rendering scenes. 21 CPDUs will be granted for attending all three days (21 hours).

3ds Max� Level 2
This course covers the applied techniques of 2D and 3D animation and rendering. Students learn the applied concepts and techniques of modeling with modification techniques that use the materials editor, special effects lighting, geometric modifiers, key framing and tracking to derive practical animation solutions to complex animated effects. Discussion topics include Radiosity & Mental Ray Rendering, camera switching & posting effects, animated materials, network rendering, and particle systems. 14 CPDUs will be granted for attending both days (14 hours).

AutoCAD� Update
This course is designed for the faculty member that currently teaches earlier versions of AutoCAD. The update training covers the new features, enhancements and commands in AutoCAD. This course is presented in both lecture and hands-on form so users can acquire those concepts needed to enhance their AutoCAD skills. Faculty members proficient with AutoCAD 2000 or later will gain further knowledge and proficiencies with the tools necessary to stay competitive. Hands-on exercises cover the application of AutoCAD in a variety of industries, and range from simple to advanced. 14 CPDUs will be granted for attending both days (14 hours).

AutoCAD� Fundamentals
This course covers the basic AutoCAD commands necessary to create a drawing. Creating, editing, dimensioning, viewing, managing, and plotting two-dimensional drawings will be covered. You will create simple drawings, add precision to drawings, drawing organization and gathering information about drawings, creating more complex objects, annotate drawings, intermediated creation and editing features, productivity tools, intermediate viewing commands, text enhancements, dimensioning features, utilities and model space and paper space layout plotting. AutoCAD pedagogical methods of teaching will be discussed. CAD experience is not necessary for this course. 32 CPDUs will be granted for attending all four days (32 hours).

Revit- Architecture Level 1
This hands-on course is designed for the high school or college faculty member. This course familiarizes the faculty member with Autodesk's newest architectural software, Autodesk Revit, the newest parametric database modeling technology available to the AEC industry. Upon completion of this course, you should be able to setup, develop, design and construction documents and familiarize yourself with the importance of creating a live database model as part of each project. 21 CPDUs will be granted for attending all three days (21 hours).

Revit- Architecture Level 2
Students will continue with concepts learned in Revit Level 1. Learn about simple site design, add tags to rooms for space planning, area calculations, roofs, stairs, basic rendering techniques, design options, creating custom components, custom templates and collaborating on a building design. 14 CPDUs will be granted for attending both days (14 hours).

Revit� Architecture Family Editor
This course is designed to familiarize the user of Autodesk's Building Information Modeling (BIM) software solution Revit Architecture Family Editor for developing architectural content for use in project models, details and construction plans, and schedules, annotations and tags. Also, included are best practices for developing family standards and managing family content. The course uses presentations, tutorials, and hands-on exercises to enable the user to understand family concepts, create parametric content and develop best practice standards for families and manage library content for projects. 14 CPDUs will be granted for attending all both days (14 hours).
