We\u2019ll be announcing the winners of the AU 2016 Speaker Awards soon. Until then, don\u2019t forget to head to <a href=\"http:\/\/au.autodesk.com\/au-online\/overview\">AU online<\/a> and start exploring new classes now available including handouts, data sets, and hundreds of hours of recorded media. Remember, as Carl Bass said, ongoing learn is the key to success. So hit those books. (Er, devices.)
