SAN FRANCISCO, California, 10/1/2013 - Ideate, Inc., an Autodesk Gold Value Added Reseller, today announced that Ideate AEC Application Specialist Gaurav Bagga was awarded Autodesk Instructor Certification (ACI) upon completion of the three-day ACI Workshop in San Diego, California, August 20 –August 22, 2013.

The program requires each candidate to have at least two years’ teaching experience before application and admission. It is designed to ensure that students leave the classroom competent and confident.

ACI certified instructors must meet standardized requirements in order to teach Autodesk solutions. The program also provides an in-depth evaluation of an instructor’s proficiency with Autodesk solutions and the instructor’s ability to train others.

The ACI certification of Gaurav Bagga completes the ACI requirement for Ideate, Inc. from Autodesk for the FY2014 year.

“We offer congratulations to Gaurav on the extraordinary achievement of ACI status,” says Bob Palioca, President of Ideate, Inc. “The rigorous ACI training guides our expert technical team members to advance their already excellent listening, presentation, and teaching skills. The evaluations they undergo–from class members, instructors, and self-directed—encourage even greater refinement of skills and mastery of fast-evolving technologies.
