About this Course

Autodesk® Revit® is a Building Information Modeling (BIM) tool, which can be used by more than one person working on a new project. This is an important feature in collaboration within a project, between projects, and with other users, firms, and disciplines. The objective of the Autodesk® Revit® Collaboration Tools training course is to enable students who have a basic knowledge of Autodesk Revit to increase their productivity while working with other people on a team, either in the same firm or other firms as well as with other disciplines. It also covers linking Autodesk Revit files and linking or importing other CAD files. 

The training course covers Autodesk® Revit® Architecture, Autodesk® Revit® MEP, and Autodesk® Revit® Structure.

Students in this Autodesk Revit training course learn how to:

• Set up project phasing
  
• Create and display a variety of design options
  
• Use groups
  
• Link Autodesk Revit files
  
• Use multi-discipline coordination including Copy/Monitor and Coordination Review
  
• Import and export vector and raster files including exporting Autodesk Revit models for energy analysis
  
• Understand, use, and set up worksets
  

The following outline shows the approximate schedule for the self-study curriculum and the hands-on lab sessions.

For the duration of the course, in addition to the self-study content and the weekly lab sessions, students will have access to online tools that allow them to communicate with each other to share information and ask questions related to the course materials.
