Since digging into Autodesk Fusion 360, I have been very impressed with it features and capabilities. Moving forward, I plan to utilize it esclusivly as my CAD/CAM solution. The Autodesk Fusion 360 team has put together a nice Fusion 360 overview video at (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaVb4NiVazM).
The nice folks at Pocket NC (http://www.pocketnc.com) have partnered with Autodesk Fusion 360 as they develop their 5-Axis Desktop CNC Mill. The Pocket NC P5 is going to enable endless innovation. I’m still wrapping my head around having the ability of 5-Axis CNC Milling right on my desk. Check out and follow Pocket NC (http://www.pocketnc.com) as they prepare for their 2015 Kickstarter campaign. This month, Pocket NC put out a great video demonstrating a development version of the Pocket NC P5 coupled with Autodesk Fusion 360 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ijqmLLjHbyk).
Autodesk has great resources to get you started with learning Fusion 360 at http://fusion360.autodesk.com/resources. Below, I have put together a list of two companies that provide web based Autodesk Fusion 360 educational training.
Autodesk Fusion 360 Training & Tutorials - $24.99 a Month / $249.00 a Year
http://www.cadlearning.com/courses/autodesk-fusion-360-training-tutorials/
CADLearning for Autodesk Fusion 360 teaches the cloud-based components of Autodesk Fusion 360 used for 3D modeling in industrial and mechanical design. You’ll learn how to create and manipulate models from multiple sources and transform your design into models for simulation or document your design with 2D drawings that include dimensions and annotations. Video lessons cover creating sketch geometry, solid modeling and editing, assemblies and constraints, interoperability and much more.

Autodesk Fusion 360 is a direct manipulation, feature based, history free modeler which utilizes direct editing workflows. This course will teach and demonstrate the basic features for the user to effectively interact with their designs. Using sketch tools along with 2D constraints, the user will add design intent to their dimensionally accurate designs. Using the solid modeling tools the user will create single body part and well as multibody part designs. Using T-Spline modeling technology users can create free form and organic shapes for use in Industrial designs. Applying the use of direct manipulation editing tools the designs can be refined and edited. With the use of 3D assembly joints their assembly designs can be realized within Autodesk Fusion 360. With a broad support for import formats, using Autodesk Fusion 360 gives the designer powerful and easy to use 3D editing tools for model modification of data from almost any source.
