Course Aim

This easy-to-follow course is designed specifically to aid those in a position of management within the Architectural, Engineering, Construction and Operation sectors (AECO) sectors or members of a project team tasked with producing deliverables along Building Information Modelling (BIM) principles. The content has been fully reworked and updated to incorporate the requirements of the new international ISO 19650 standards and compliance with BIM Stage 2 maturity as detailed within those standards. The intention is to understand BIM from different stakeholder perspectives, rather than a single, blinkered approach; to realise how data can and should be structured to maximise usage; to explore what the data can do if collated and presented in a collaborative way. This course uses a combination of theory, workshop, and hands-on exercises to explore and understand the relevant national and international standards as well as market best practice. The course contains helpful tips and tricks and will be an invaluable reminder of the topics covered in your learning and a source of reference for years to come.
