Member Training Providor Program (MTP)
Training industries that support the construction industry
This Program was originally created through successful collaboration between Autodesk and the national leadership of major North American trade unions and personnel who manage their membership training programs. It has since expanded to non-union membership programs as well. This Program allows qualifying training organizations (i.e. Union, Non-Union and Merit-Shop) to use Autodesk software products at their training sites for an annual, low-cost subscription fee. This Autodesk Program will enhance BIM & CAD training efforts at current training sites, or allow a new site to offer enhanced training initiatives with Autodesk technology.

Where can a Membership Organization locate experienced, Autodesk Instructors in their area?

If a Membership Organization outside of North America is interested in locating experienced Autodesk instructors in their area, they can contact their Autodesk Regional Distributor (see contact information above). An Autodesk Certified Instructor must meet defined professional criteria prior to obtaining an authorized instructor credential.
How can a Membership Organization instructor become an Autodesk Certified Instructor (ACI)?
Autodesk offers the opportunity for a Membership Organization instructor to become an Autodesk Certified Instructor free of charge (this does not include certification exam fee). Autodesk Certified Instructor Program Enrollment information is available here: http://aci.autodesk.com/
