guide and two updated training guides for Autodesk 2009 software:

Worldwide. “By continually updating our courseware materials, we are able to
help our clients stay ahead with software upgrades and enhancements.”
ASCENT’s new courseware release, AutoCAD 2009 Update for AutoCAD
2006-2007 Users, is an ideal training guide for users that are upgrading
from AutoCAD 2006 or 2007. The guide focuses on the newest features released
in AutoCAD 2008 and 2009 including the Ribbon and Menu Browser; workflow for
using annotative objects and annotation scales; Quick View Layouts and
Drawings; and the Layout Properties Manager. A comprehensive overview of the
AutoCAD 2009 interface is also provided.
The AutoCAD Architecture 2009 Fundamentals training guide concentrates on
the design development and construction documentation features within
AutoCAD Architecture 2009. Users are exposed to the tools required to create
a basic floor plan and specialty objects such as column and ceiling grids,
stairs, and roofs. The training guide also introduces drawing management
through the Project Navigator.
Inventor 2009 Advanced Part Modeling builds upon the skills users acquire
from ASCENT’s recently released Inventor 2009 Introduction to Solid Modeling
training guide. This advanced Inventor training guide includes more content
for users that want to expand their knowledge of designing and documenting
part models. The training guide presents part modeling techniques such as
advanced lofts, sweeps, coils, and surfaces. Users will also gain an
understanding of how to create revision and hole tables and custom sketch
symbols.

curriculum. All of the company’s Autodesk courses are available to
