Autodesk Authorized Publisher Releases Courseware Titles in Conjunction with the  Autodesk 2019 Software Release 

Baltimore, MD — May 10, 2018 — ASCENT – Center for Technical Knowledge, a member of the Autodesk Authorized Publisher Program, announces the release of its updated Learning Guides for Autodesk 2019 software. ASCENT’s comprehensive Autodesk 2019 Courseware Roadmap outlines the release dates for over 70 titles. Titles are available in both print and eBook formats through ASCENT’s online store at ASCENTeStore.com, and in print at Amazon.com.

In addition to the Autodesk 2019 offerings, ASCENT has released a French version of Revit Architecture 2018 Fundamentals, called Autodesk Revit 2018 Architecture: Concepts de base (Métrique). This title is a result of a partnership between ASCENT and Autodesk to extend BIM curriculum to the French language architectural community.

“Delivering BIM curriculum to the architectural community is imperative for Autodesk as the AEC Industry is rapidly evolving and the architect’s mission is expanding,” says Emmanuel Di Giacomo, Architect and BIM Ecosystem Development Manager for Europe at Autodesk. “Making our world a better place and helping designers create the world of tomorrow is of strategic importance to Autodesk, and therefore we have partnered with ASCENT to deliver the most current Revit-based curriculum for the French market.”

As an Autodesk Authorized Developer and Publisher, we are committed to serving the learning needs of organizations looking to increase adoption and establish consistent best practices with their Autodesk software investment," says Paul Burden, director of product development for ASCENT. “Beyond delivering our leading and current educational resources, this year we are also proud to expand multi-language accessibility to our courseware with the introduction of our first French language learning guide.”
