[CLOSED] Your experience attending and finding Autodesk user groups & online communities

[rachel.hartley]

The Autodesk Group Network is relatively new, launched in 2019, to connect and support the global network of Autodesk user groups and online groups around the world. But, many of our user groups have been around long before that! 

Our live database finder allows you to browse and find user groups that are officially in our network, so you can connect to a community most relevant to you. 

We would love your feedback here about your experience with user groups:

1. Have you participated in an Autodesk user group or online community before?
2. If yes,
   1. Is this group a part of the Autodesk Group Network? Feel free to share a link to the user group's main website.
   2. Are you a member of the group, speaker or leading/managing the group?
   3. How would you describe your experience participating in user groups? What would you like to see being done more?
3. If no,
   1. Why haven't you participated in a user group? 
   2. What would invite or attract you to join a user group in the future?

We look forward to your feedback so we can improve and make Autodesk user groups relevant and valuable to our community around the world.

I really miss the user groups with speaker Craig Chester at the Ingersoll facility in Il. They are a very valuable and I love to hear what's being worked on, even though it's not ready for release yet. It also give guys a chance to mingle around with the other users and share problems, or tips.

There is no user group for Meshmixer or even Netfabb.
