Live from SolidWorks World 2013: The 9th Annual CAD Manager’s Boot Camp
Time and Location: Sunday January 20th, 1-5pm in Southern I & II
Each year since the SolidWorks World we hosted in Boston, we have held the CAD Admin Bootcamp. This is an opportunity to discuss and learn
more about how to manage SolidWorks and the hardware it runs on. We cover a wide variety of topics (that’s why it’s really 4 hours long) and we have a members of our support team available to answer questions.
While we do cover many of the similar topics each year, they are always updated (i.e., Windows 8) and new things are added (CAD Admin Dashboard and some other surprises). Every year we try to ensure there is something you can take from these sessions. One of the additions this year is we will list sessions during the week that are related to each of the topics. Here is the listing:
