Meetings |
Typically, we select a main topic or item for discussion at our meetings, have a presentation or display of the topic, and then allow open discussions concerning aspects of the topic. The agenda can be flexible depending on interests from the users, and users are encouraged to submit their suggestions for main topic discussions at upcoming meetings. In addition to a selected topic, there will be demonstrations of new software and applications that may be of interest to users, and also open discussion periods on any topic of MicroStation that users would like to bring up. With this flexibility, users may explore new ways of using MicroStation, and even resolve problems or difficulties they may be having with the software.

User Presentations |
Users may
volunteer to present a specific topic of MicroStation that they are familiar
with, or show some way of using the software that may be unique to their
working environment- such as developed applications, workspace customizations,
standards and procedures. Also, there will be plenty of opportunities for
users to show off their great work in the flashier side of MicroStation- i.e.
3D modeling, rendering, animations, etc. It is our plan for this year, that
we have presentations from some of the following organizations: Bentley,
Intergraph, MicroSoft, regional software and hardware vendors and of course:
TMC.

Benefits |
The opportunity of meeting with various individuals of like-minded working environments has proven to be a benefit to all users. If you are interested, then come on by to our next meeting to take a look. Also, look at the membership list to see how many individuals (and companies) are represented. This is a great way to network with users of one of the fastest growing user's groups in the nation. |
