Autodesk's mission is to empower innovators with design and make technology so they can achieve the new possible. Since your students are the innovators and creators of tomorrow, it's important to empower them with skills they'll need to succeed. That's where the Autodesk Certified User program comes in. The Autodesk Certified User (ACU) certification is an industry-recognized credential that can effectively start students' careers as designers, engineers, and makers.

In this episode, we were able to chat with Tanner Morris. Tanner Morris is Certiport's Product Manager over the Autodesk Certified User program. At the end of a good workday, he can usually be found building Duplo towers with his kids, keeping the Autodesk spirit alive. Tanner gives us all the details about the Autodesk certification program, including what topics are covered on the current exams, what resources are available for educators, and how to bring these skills to life for your students.
