The Course in Detail
Develop your Revit and BIM skills for modern construction projects
This three-day practical course is designed for beginners looking to develop their understanding of Autodesk Revit and Building Information Modelling (BIM).
Through tutor-led demonstrations and hands-on exercises, you’ll learn how to navigate Revit, create and manage building models, develop key building elements and produce professional drawings and documentation.
Ideal for anyone starting their journey with Revit across construction, engineering and design disciplines, this course provides a practical introduction to BIM-enabled workflows using Autodesk Revit (2026).
No previous Revit, CAD or BIM experience is required.
On successful completion of the three-day course, you will receive a CETC (SHCG) Certificate of Completion.
The course does not include a formal assessment. Your skills will be developed through practical exercises, tutor guidance and hands-on experience using Autodesk Revit.
