We have just transitioned to new autocad MEP 2012, Revit MEP and design suite. What the the best tutorials available to help walk us through this mess. We have upgraded from Autocad 2008. This is a very intensive program update and we need to start getting to know this software...

It seems Autodesk is not inclined to have many training classes and is relying on us using online tutorials......

thanks

The opening disclaimer is that everyone learns differently, so they will like different things.  I rely on various authorized Autodesk reference materials and have found that I really like the training materials Ascent publishes.

AutoDesk wants you to utilize the resources of your authorized AutoDesk reseller.

I agree with John... which is why I like Ascent (aside from the quality of their materials).  I have several courseware items from them that I'm currently working thru.  I purchased some of them at AU this past year.  Ascent training is also good for those who want to be on a certification track.

Unfortunately, all are not created equal.  I've probably said enough.  Ouch

I too endorse the ASCENT line of instructional books and if you can find someone giving a course that utilizes one of their books then you have found a real winner.
