What is AUGI?AUGI is the Autodesk User Group International, officially recognized by Autodesk as representing the Autodesk user community. AUGI has two prime directives: The first is to assist its members by presenting programs and information that will enhance their use of Autodesk solutions; the second is to deliver the voice of the user community to Autodesk, thus assisting Autodesk in product development and giving users a say in the process.

What does AUGI do?AUGI provides an environment for users to help users. We offer programs and services that provide the Autodesk user community access to one another and to Autodesk. Our goal is to implement programs that are lacking in the Autodesk user environment rather than compete with programs already available to users. Our motto is “Users Helping Users.” We work very hard to promote our membership as a community working together to strengthen each other and the community at large.

Why invest your marketing dollars with AUGI?You can be assured that all of AUGI’s marketing opportunities including publications, websites,social media and events are all strategically targeted to the design industries you serve.

I work for a housing developer just outside greater London in England. Although I have been working with Autodesk products for over 15 years, the company has only recently made the transition from a more basic product. Due to the requirements of the business, a number of issues regarding drafting techniques became apparent without obvious solutions.

I registered with AUGI and posted some of my questions on the forums hoping to get some feedback. I was more than surprised to find a number of more than useful responses and ideas within just a couple of hours.

I now check the forums on a regular basis as I feel they have become an invaluable source of information.
