CAD Management
With my 20+ years of CAD Managing, I am looking forward to helping you in any and all CAD managing tasks. These tasks include styles & standards, document management (Vault/PLM), training (whether one person or your whole team), Software upgrades (including hot fixes, patches, enhancements installation), annual software upgrades , license management & compliance, day to day computer/software issues, etc. With my inside relationships with Autodesk, Expert Elites, other experts (CAD Managers in these fields), I am able to learn about issues, conflicts, and other problems related to Autodesk software. In doing so, I am able to offer possible solutions, work arounds, or fixes faster. In return, I will save you from down time and loss of revenue.
Employee Training
With the software industry being so diverse and ever evolving, it can sometimes be difficult to choose the correct program for the job at hand. Even once you have made a decision, it can be even harder to find employees who all have common training in the same workflows. I have seen and heard this over and over again. I have 20+ years of CAD managing and have spent the last 3 years attending Autodesk University as a speaker and educator. I have hosted classes that have involved many topics including: complete overview of the software, 2D, 3D, styles & standards, hardware & software, 3D PDF, 3D printing and more. The positive reception received from these classes and through my daily support via Autodesk/Directly has prompted me to offer training through YourCadGuru. I specialize in problem solving, new employee training, updated/new program integration, software trouble shooting and utilization review, etc. I will customize, prep and deliver training to your satisfaction. Types of training that I offer are: in house, remote, Webinar, phone, or electronic. Don’t let productivity suffer, submit an inquiry for training today.
