AXUG Summit 2010 - coming in October

The AXUG Summit 2010 has been set, and things are really ramping up to make this a very great event. All kinds of sessions are already planned, and last years feedback is for sure being used to help make this one of the must attend AX related events of the year.

In preps for the upcoming Summit 2010, I plan on doing a series of post until the summit, that will build up to the summit kick off. From there, I will be attending the Summit myself this year, and will be doing coverage while I am there.

From this, I wanted to get things started, and hope to peak everyone's interest in this most value event. With that, I virtually sat down with Andy Hafer, which leads the Dynamics Community teams responsible for AXUG. Andy had this to say about the upcoming event.:

"This year’s AXUG Summit is shaping up to be the best one yet! In the six years that I’ve been involved in the User Group, I have never seen such energy and excitement around this conference. From my observations, it appears that most companies are starting to see the economic slump in their rearview mirror and are now seriously re-tooling for the distinctively new way of doing business post-recession. I’ve had countless conversations with individuals who are having to become proficient on jobs that others used to do in their company and they are leveraging AXUG to help them gain that education.

The Summit has gained a reputation for being the most cost-effective and efficient means of Dynamics AX training out there. Since AXUG brought a bit of the Summit-experience to Convergence through hosting most of the Interactive Discussions in Atlanta in April, it appears that an entirely new audience was introduced to the value of the User Community. We’ve already had to go back to the Orlando Renaissance Hotel for more space once and now the team is discussing how to handle a “sold-out” situation.

It seems that the “perfect storm” scenario is upon us and the AXUG User Community is going to be the ones to benefit. With three days of knowledge sharing and break-out sessions plus two more days of formal training and education, attendees will have over 200 sessions to take advantage of. There is no doubt that a massive increase in AX competency will transform the community in Orlando the week of October 18th."

I agree with Andy there does seem to be a perfect storm brewing, and the summit is the accumlating storms coming to rain knowledge on all those who attend.

Ok, so to much analogy --- I know. Point is, there is a lot going on at AXUG Summit, and if you have AX, if your investing into it at any level, as a customer AXUG Summit is the place you should attend.

Just to give you an idea of some of the topics of interest.:

• Sneak Peak at AX 6.0


• Role Center Setup and Administration


• SSRS Reporting


• Setting up Workflow


• Mastering Master Planning


• Introduction to Management Reporter


• Executive BI Roundtable

These are just some highlights. Well I hope I have your attention, and your ready to sign up for AXUG. Look here, as I continue to highlight the upcoming Summit, along with some interviews and key point of views around AXUG, the summit, and what value it brings to customers!

Till next time!
