On behalf of the GT STRUDL Users Group, I would personally like to take this opportunity to invite you to attend the GT STRUDL 20th Annual Users Group Meeting & Training Seminar, June 23-26, 2008 to be held this year at the Flamingo Hotel, in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Here is a great opportunity for you to see Technical Presentations on how GT STRUDL is being used on engineering projects around the world. You will learn how to use the New Features in the latest version of GT STRUDL as demonstrated by Georgia Tech - CASE Center's Research & Development team. You will also earn Professional Development Hours (PDH's) for your participation in all technical sessions. You will soon realize what an invaluable meeting this is and one that is definitely worth attending every year. As an added bonus we have been able to secure a great meeting venue, social events, and did I mention the great meals, which is all part of the GT STRUDL Users Group experience. You don't want to miss this meeting!
As Chairman of the GT STRUDL Users Group, I would also like to take this opportunity to address those of you who have not yet had an opportunity to participate in one of these meetings. I have been an active member of the Users Group, in one capacity or another, for more than fifteen years. I can personally tell you that this is one of the most informative and educational meetings of its type, and the relationships that I have established over the years through the GT STRUDL Users Group have proven very beneficial to me and my company. The Users Group is truly committed to building a strong link between those of us who use the program and the Georgia Tech - CASE Center's Research & Development Team. It is time for you to become part of the "Team." Start making your plans now to attend this meeting.
Companies spend thousands of dollars each year on updating their software tools. The GT STRUDL Users Group wants to make sure that their engineers get "Updated" too. This is one of the Users Group's primary goals. Don't miss out on the opportunity to get a Jump-Start on how to use the latest GT STRUDL release.
The driving force behind GT STRUDL is its users, and together we can help steer the course of future GT STRUDL development by providing the Georgia Tech - CASE Center with first-hand insight into our engineering needs.
Meeting Preview:
Training Sessions - Focus on NEW features and performance enhancements of the latest release version of GT STRUDL. Training will be conducted by the senior Research & Development team of the Georgia Tech - CASE Center. Handouts will be provided to assist you in learning and implementing this information.
Technical Presentations - Users from around the world will present papers showing unique applications of GT STRUDL that have been used on their engineering projects.
Earn PDH's - Professional Development Hours (PDH) awarded based on participation in Technical/Training Sessions.
Technical Committee Break-Out Sessions - Your participation and input is vital to these technical committees. This is your opportunity to identify specific features or enhancements that you believe would benefit you or your company as a GT STRUDL user. Each committee compiles this information and submits recommendations to the CASE Center for future GT STRUDL development relating to the areas of Analysis, Bridge, Design, Interface, and Quality Assurance.
