This programme is aimed at employed professionals within construction, architecture, engineering or design who wish to develop or formalise their BIM and Revit capability living in the Republic of Ireland
This three-day, fully online programme is delivered through live, tutor-led and interactive sessions and is designed to upskill construction industry professionals currently in employment in the principles of Building Information Modelling (BIM) and the practical use of Revit.
Participants will explore BIM fundamentals alongside hands-on Revit training, developing the ability to create accurate 3D models and apply structured digital workflows to real-world construction projects. As part of the Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) Skills Suite at Mount Lucas, this course strengthens digital capability across design, coordination and project delivery environments.
On successful completion, participants will achieve industry-recognised certification in Introduction to BIM and Revit.
Course Aim
To be able to operate Revit and produce structural drawings, details and schedules from modelled components which include foundations, floor plans, walls, columns, beams etc. You will also be able to modify components, materials etc to suit specific design requirements.
