Free CAD Managers Forum Event:
EatyourCAD (EYC) is holding the first US CAD Managers Forum event at HNTB’s offices in Kansas City, Missouri on Monday August 24th from 8:00 am to 3:00 pm. The focus of this round-table, open discussion session will be looking at the developing role of the CAD Manager, with emphasis on the current recession. We will be looking at how BIM is impacting our daily jobs, and how to approach implementation. We will be discussing the expense of training and how we can make the most of what is available to maximise benefits and how CAD Management should support our company’s business aims. Demonstrating success, and justifying the role of CAD Management can be difficult, but it is essential to the long-term success of the CAD Manager’s role. The afternoon sessions are for exchanging ways of managing your priorities, planning projects and monitoring your performance.

NOTE: you need to be logged into EYC to see the agenda and booking form. Registration is free and only takes a second or two.
This Forum is highly recommended for CAD Managers and those responsible for CAD Support at any level of experience, in large or small firms. Join us for this invaluable day of learning and sharing – and be assured, you’ll come away knowing more than you did before.
