Conference Agenda / Sessions

REGISTER NOW -- We're keeping it easy and recognizing the current economic restrictions many companies are experiencing so the 'EARLY BIRD SPECIAL' is now the price for the Carlson User Conference — It's still just $695 to register for two full days of intensive classes -- less than half regular training costs. Also note: There is a $50 discount per registrant for groups of three or more (just sign up in one registration form and the discount will be taken when you check out).

The class schedule for the Carlson 'Break New Ground' User Conference is complete. All class descriptions have been updated. Eight "tracks" are scheduled including Survey, SurvCE, Construction, Civil, Mining, Dealers, an Electives track , and taking from select courses in each of those tracks, a Concept-to-Completion (C-to-C) track. Click on the name of the track to be able to scan the classes scheduled under that subject for each of the two days. The C-to-C track will enhance attendees' knowledge and use of the various Carlson Software solutions that are designed for all aspects of a project from beginning to end. Check out this grid with the most up-to-date class schedule to make it easier to choose courses.

The courses offered under the new C-to-C track include: SurvCE: Field-to-Finish (held in the field); SurvCE: Stakeout; Field-to-Finish Mapping; Commercial Site Design; RoadNET; Watersheds/Routing; Takeoff Advanced Earthworks; and Carlson Machine Control.

Attendees may concentrate on one track or they have the option to pick and choose their favorites from among the various "tracks." Each session is led by an expert Carlson instructor, including Carlson College staff, plus Carlson Software management, developers, and dealers. NOTE: Most classes will be offering IACET-sanctioned CEUs. Carlson College is authorized by IACET as a Continuing Education Provider and the classes offered conform to all IACET requirements. NOTE: Classes offering IACET-sanctioned CEUs are listed below, but it is recommended that, due to differing state requirements, each attendant check with his or her state organization to determine its CEU acceptance/regulations.
