Bay Area ARCHICAD User Group
Apr 1 @ 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm

Due to restrictions surrounding COVID-19, we have decided to make this ARCHICAD User Group a VIRTUAL one. Since it’s virtual and many of us are at home, we’ve also decided to hold it at 4pm instead of the typical 6pm so you can have your evening free.

TOPIC: Working Remotely with ARCHICAD
There are a number of things to consider when setting you and your team up to work remotely. During this session we will discuss:
– Methods for accessing your license – individual vs network
– Making sure home computers can handle ARCHICAD
– Methods for managing project files, external links and teamwork

If there’s something you’d like to explore or if you’d like to share a recent discovery or project case study, let us know – [email protected] or 800-522-05554. We’re always looking for ways to help our users make the most of ARCHICAD.
