REVIT ARCHITECTURE BASIC TRAINING course overview
Trainees will be introduced to the Revit User Interface, and learn the basic operating functions and tools (e.g. Elements/Families, Settings, Views) on a step-by-step basis. Trainees will also explore the wide array of fundamental modelling features used to model Building Elements. Trainees will be given opportunities to clarify doubts and/or put to practice what they have learnt at the Guided Practical Sessions led by our Professional CAD/BIM Trainer. A Certificate of Completion will be issued to each Trainee at the end of the course.
