Book Recommendation: Autodesk Official Training Guide

Update: Autodesk 2012 products are coming. If you are looking for AOTG for 2012 products, please find it here.

I have posted a review about AutoCAD 2011 and AutoCAD LT 2011 – No Experience Required. I’ve been wondering what are the other Autodesk official training guide (AOTG), so I did some searches. I found some titles, I’m still wondering what are the others… So I make a list in this post. I don’t write reviews about the books, because honestly I haven’t read them. Except for AutoCAD NER book. Probably the publisher want to send me a copy when they read this :)

However, I do recommend you to take a look to these books. They are AOTGs. The AOTG logo means that these books have been reviewed by Autodesk team, and recommended to be used in training classes, and for you who want to learn by yourself.

So remember these books’ cover, you may want to try finding them at local book store. You can’t find them? You can also purchase it from Amazon, clicking the books’ link will take you to the products page.

AutoCAD 2011 and AutoCAD LT 2011 – No Experience Required	Mastering Revit Architecture 2011	Mastering Revit MEP 2011
Mastering 3ds Max Design 2011	Mastering Maya 2011
Mastering AutoCAD Civil 3D 2011	Mastering Inventor and Inventor LT 2011

If you are looking for Autodesk official training courseware (AOTC) for older version (2010 or older) you can find them at Autodesk Store. I don’t think AOTC available for 2011 version, it looks like they are replaced by AOTG. I’ve been looking there several times, but never find books for 2011 version.

The nice thing about the old version is we can have e-book version, which I preferred than the hardcopy. I wish one day the AOTG will be available in e-book format too, but not only for Amazon kindle!

And if you do know more AOTG, please share with us!
