The Building Information Modelling (BIM) training course, develops practical knowledge of BIM and its application to modern project management. The programme explains how digital construction, structured information, 3D modelling, data coordination, and digital engineering support planning, design, execution, monitoring, and management across construction projects.
Designed within Project Management Training Courses under the Management category, the course focuses on using Building Information Modelling (BIM) to improve project collaboration, information management, coordination, and decision-making. Participants learn how to understand and contribute to a BIM execution plan, coordinate multidisciplinary project information, reduce information conflicts, and apply digital workflows throughout the construction project lifecycle.
Course Objectives
