BIM Classes Los Angeles, CA

The CAD/BIM Certificate Program combines training in both AutoCAD and Revit, providing students with versatile skills for the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry. Through project-based learning led by practicing professionals, participants can specialize in areas like Revit MEP, Revit Structure, or AutoCAD Construction Documents to enhance their career prospects.

The BIM Project Management course equips professionals with project management skills to streamline workflows, enhance collaboration, and oversee BIM projects. Through hands-on training, participants will explore Revit tools for team coordination, implement workflow procedures, and perform clash detection to optimize project outcomes. Key topics include managing scope, delegating tasks, and utilizing work-sharing principles for large project documentation.

BIM Detailing is tailored for architects, interior designers, engineers, and other construction professionals aiming to refine their Revit detailing expertise. Participants will develop architectural details for commercial projects, focusing on both traditional 2D drafting and hybrid detailing methods that combine live model views with annotations. By the end of the course, learners will master detail callouts, tools, keynotes, and creating multi-scale detail drawings aligned with National CAD/BIM standards.

This 3-day class on AutoCAD provides an introduction to the essentials. Students will learn how to navigate the AutoCAD workspace and user interface. They will practice creating and editing 2D drawings, working with layers and creating reusable blocks. Finally, students will prepare their work to be exported to PDF form.

Further develop the skills learned in a basic class during this two-day intermediate AutoCAD class. Through a combination of class discussions, hands-on learning, and live instruction, students master skills like efficient layout creation, layers, templates, layouts, styles, global and local blocks, advanced object creation, and publishing. This course is a step toward the Autodesk AutoCAD Certified Professional badge.

This three-day advanced class is the capstone of AutoCAD instruction. Using best practices and techniques, participants work on real-word projects, workflow automation, and process improvement. After a brief review of some AutoCAD basics, the curriculum moves quickly to areas like advanced objects, fields, and formatting, DWF/PDF output, layers, filters, plugins, automated CAD standards, productivity enhancement, macros, and CAD management. This course helps students prepare for the Autodesk AutoCAD Certified Professional exam.

Use your proficiency with 2D commands to create 3D models in this two-day AutoCAD advanced class. Participants master fundamental concepts and explore some key 3D design tools. Students with a solid working knowledge of AutoCAD usually do well in this course. Specific topics include solids, 3D foundations, editing, refining, and visualizing projects, and advanced 3D modeling.

Fully develop your AutoCAD knowledge in this five-day bootcamp. Building and engineering professionals use industry standard tools to build sophisticated AEC projects. Through a combination of individual and group projects, live instruction, and class discussions, participants explore areas like CAD workspace, layered drawing, essential drawing, viewing, and editing tools, layout preparation, hatching, text, and parametric constraint addition, blocking, layering, plotting, and publishing. No previous CAD experience is necessary for this beginner-level class.

The Revit Certification Course provides training to develop BIM skills and prepare for the Autodesk Revit Certified User Exam. Through five courses, students learn to create architectural models, generate construction documents, and master intermediate Revit concepts with hands-on, project-based instruction.
