"We recently worked with Eagle Point to effectively implement AutoCAD Civil 3D. After many frustrating attempts and wasted hours, we turned to Eagle Point to help us plan a successful deployment for implementing Civil 3D.

By combining, Eagle Point's Task Navigator, product training, and customized workflow creation, we are now moving in the right direction and becoming more efficent. We were also very pleased with Eagle Point instructors and engineers who have been instrumental in helping us to better understand how to be more productive with AutoCAD Civil 3D.

Whether you are new to Civil 3D, migrating from Land Development Desktop or, like us, want to improve your productivity, we believe Eagle Point has the right solution for you."

JumpStart Program for AutoCAD® Civil 3D®

When an organization decides to make the migration from their old design platform to AutoCAD Civil 3D, there are some fundamental items that must be addressed before they can train all of the users. The first item is styles creation. Most firms want their deliverables to look the same in AutoCAD Civil 3D as they did in their old design software. This means styles and standards must be developed to allow for simple creation of the same deliverables. Secondly, to harness the power of AutoCAD Civil 3D, the organization's processes and workflows must change. Since these two items must be completed before training the entire organization is possible, we created the JumpStart Program to give organizations an easy and quick way to start their migration process.

Eagle Point's JumpStart Program for AutoCAD Civil 3D provides you with 4 days of onsite Civil 3D implementation work. The first 1.5 days are dedicated to styles creation and training, the next 2 days detail process creation and training, and the last half day is used to train key people on how to use the Task Navigator within Civil 3D.

What's Included:

DAYS 1-2 (1.5): An Eagle Point engineer works with the selected styles owner(s) to create styles for a certain project type. As they work together, the styles are created and the owner(s) learn how to create new styles, modify existing styles, and manage the styles and templates. It is imperative to learn how to create and modify styles because style creation is an on-going job. Many times a new project requires a new style to be created or an old style to be modified. The styles owner(s) need to be able to handle this dynamic work without having to rely on outside consultants.
DAYS 2-4 (2): An Eagle Point engineer works with the subject matter experts from a certain project type. The engineer interviews the subject matter experts to determine how work gets done today. Then, using that knowledge, the engineer fine tunes the existing process to include AutoCAD Civil 3D technology. This ensures the company can keep its existing process and immediately be able to take advantage of the powerful features in AutoCAD Civil 3D. During this time, the process owner(s) are trained on how to create new processes. This is imperative because new processes need to be created and old processes modified to take advantage of new functionality or to document processes for different project types.
DAY 4 (.5): During the final half day, an Eagle Point engineer trains a select group of pilot users on how to use the Task Navigator to walk through the processes created during days 2-4. This allows a small group of people to get accustomed to using AutoCAD Civil 3D and the processes while the Eagle Point engineer is still there to answer questions and fine tune the solution.

AutoCAD® Civil 3D® Styles Training Workshop

Class Dates | Agenda

While there are many items to consider for a successful implementation of Civil 3D, the development of your company styles and standards and the education on the use of them, is perhaps the biggest challenge organizations face. Without proper setup, struggles to create production drawings that look like what you’re accustomed to can cause your first projects to go over budget. Additionally, users can lose confidence in the software’s ability and resist its use.

To help your organization clear these hurdles and provide you the knowledge to create and manage your Civil 3D styles, Eagle Point is offering a free 2-day training workshop to clients focused on creating your company’s drawing templates. This open-enrollment, instructor-led course not only teaches you the ins and outs of style creation but is intended as a way for you to dedicate time to creating your organization’s specific styles. Through a combination of lecture and lab time, you’ll learn how to use the various tools to customize styles and be allotted time to work on your drawing templates so at the end of the class, you’re armed with a preliminary template to finish in Civil 3D using the knowledge you gained in the class.

All workshops are held monthly at Eagle Point headquarters in Dubuque, IA.
