Autodesk University 2026<\/strong><\/a> returns to Las Vegas September 15 to 17. Autodesk Forma, the industry cloud for architecture, engineering, construction, and operations, has one of its biggest AU presences yet, and if planning and design is your world, this is the year to pay attention to where Forma is heading. Here’s how to plan your three days, whether you’re deep in schematic design, working in site planning, or coming from the civil side. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One tip before anything else: start with the General Sessions on Day 1 and Day 2. That’s where the biggest Forma news lands, and everything below builds on it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where to find Forma at Autodesk University 2026: the AECO Zone booth<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You’ll find us on the expo floor in the AECO Zone all three days. The booth is set up around how you actually work, with dedicated stations for architectural design (Revit, Autodesk Forma Building Design, and design collaboration), site planning and analysis with Autodesk Forma Site Design<\/a>, carbon analysis with Autodesk Forma Carbon Insights<\/a>, and design reviews with Forma Board<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most valuable two minutes you’ll spend at AU: the License Checker. A surprising number of attendees discover they already have access to Autodesk Forma’s early stage and schematic design solutions through their existing subscription and never knew about it. Stop by, enter your email, and instantly find out what’s already sitting in your account. Not sure what you have? That’s exactly who it’s for. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For architects and designers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The below Forma-focused sessions at AU 2026 are approved for AIA Learning Units. Join us across September 15\u201317 for hands-on labs and technical deep dives spanning site planning, low-carbon design, connected AECO workflows, and what’s next in Revit and earn AIA LU while you’re there. If your projects live in pre-design and schematic design, build your agenda around these: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
