Design professionals who are looking for training may wonder why they should attend a Premier Autodesk Training Center (ATC). Premier ATC means using Autodesk Official Training Courseware, and Autodesk Authorized Training Courseware, and it includes many other qualifications, such as a breadth of knowledge, that other training centers may not offer. First, the ATC instructors are different. To become a qualified ATC Instructor, one must obtain certain certifications beyond mere AutoCAD knowledge. One of the gauges of an instructor's versatility is the Autodesk Approved Instructor (AAI) accreditation, covering management, people skills and group dynamics. Other instructor certification tests cover vertical industry knowledge, including a Professional Services Examination (PSE). The pass-mark for the PSE of Autodesk products is 85 percent. Since a Premier ATC is required to offer training on vertical products, such as MAP 3D, Land Desktop, Civil 3D, Revit Architecture, Revit Structure, Revit MEP, AutoCAD MEP and AutoCAD Architecture, the instructors must be certified on these products as well. Second, Autodesk monitors a Premier ATC for performance, facilities, equipment, instructors and customer evaluations. The ATC is required to combine lecture, demonstration, and hands-on instruction. Quality is the third defining characteristic of the ATC network. Each ATC must demonstrate and maintain Autodesk's standards of excellence. By assessing the performance of each ATC, Autodesk ensures that the ATC name retains the quality hallmark that distinguishes ATCs from non-certified training providers. Fourth, the CAD-1 Premier ATC also offers AIA/CES learning units for classes taught at CAD-1. The ability to offer these credits is extended only to the best and most prestigious training providers. Recipients of AIA/CES learning units are able to apply these credit hours toward the continuing education requirement of their professional licenses. Last, but most importantly, customers are the focal point of CAD-1. CAD-1's satisfied trainees had a great deal to say about what makes a Premier ATC special. CAD-1 Premier ATC is always in the top five for volume of students trained in North and South America. Based on ATC evaluation forms, CAD-1's approval rating is substantially higher than any other high volume ATC. When you are ready to take Autodesk training, think about what makes CAD-1, as a Premier Autodesk Training Center, worth your time and investment. Our award winning customer support and Certified ATC instructors will help you get trained right the first time. Give your account representative a call today.
