Autodesk Civil 3D 2013 Certification

Autodesk^® certifications are industry-recognized credentials that can help you succeed in your design career, providing benefits to both you and your employer. Getting certified is a reliable validation of skills and knowledge, and it can lead to accelerated professional development, improved productivity, and enhanced credibility.

This Autodesk Official Training Guide can be an effective component of your exam preparation. Autodesk highly recommends (and we agree!) that you schedule regular time to prepare, review the most current exam preparation roadmap and objectives available at http://www.autodesk.com/certification, use Autodesk Official Training Guides, take a class at an Authorized Training Center (find ATCs near you here: http://www.autodesk.com/atc), and use a variety of resources to prepare for your certification — including plenty of actual hands-on experience.

To help you focus your studies on the skills you'll need for these exams, Table B.1 shows the objectives that could potentially appear on an exam and in what chapter you can find information on that topic — and when you go to that chapter, you'll find certification icons like the one in the margin here. The sections and exam objectives listed in the table are from the Autodesk Certification Exam Guide.

Good luck preparing for your certification!
