LGS University 2025

Welcome to LGS University 2025 at the Hexagon office in Tucson, Arizona. The first week of LGS University is Monday, October 20 – Thursday, October 23.

The curriculum will be identical for each week. Immerse yourself in an intensive week of technical training. The classes will include operating survey equipment, laser scanners, post-processing data, workflows and learning about integrating data from a variety of survey and reality capture sensors. We are offering over fifty different classes to challenge any user from novice to expert. Classes are applicable to all segments including Survey, Architecture, Engineering, Plant, Building Construction, Forensics and Public Safety.

There will be an event kick off each week on Monday with check in between 11 am – 1 pm. Between 1 pm and 3:45, there will be staff available in designated rooms to help assist with installation of software, activation of training licenses, and updating computer graphics. There will be no lunch provided on Monday.

At 4 pm, there will be a Keynote presentation in the 5th floor Auditorium followed by a welcome reception from 5-7 to meet instructors, fellow classmates and kick off a momentous week of learning.

If participants do not make it to the kickoff on Monday, they will be able to check in on Tuesday morning at 7:30 am.

Attendees take four classes each day, Tuesday through Thursday. Coffee and light snacks will be available at 7:30 in the morning and throughout the day. Classes start at 8 am and end at 5 pm with breaks in the morning and afternoon. Lunch will be provided Tuesday through Thursday between 12 and 1 pm on the 5th floor.

On Tuesday evening, after class at 5:30 pm, we are hosting a networking event at the Monica. We will be providing a drink coupon for everyone to enjoy a drink and mingle with Leica instructors and attendees.
