Move Forward in your Development

There’s nothing like a new calendar year to get people thinking in terms of strategy. Commonly, the strategizing relates to our careers—pondering ways in which to move ourselves forward in the coming months. With a “to do” list that includes skill sharpening, boosting productivity, and increasing industry knowledge, there’s much to be done and only 12 months to do it. 

The January 2014 issue of AUGIWorld addresses these to-do items and more. For Revit Structure users, author Scott Melching offers “Creating Advanced Families in Revit,” drawing from his 25 years of experience to help users advance their Revit knowledge.

Melinda Heavrin helps AutoCAD Architecture users increase their skill with her article, “Working with Point Clouds.” And Jennifer Storey discusses “The Potential for Advancement in AEC” and explores how that potential can be realized.
