Introduction to Autodesk Revit BIM
Introduction to Revit Architecture is a powerful parametric Building Information Modelling (BIM) program used by architects and designers. Students will learn how to create information-rich models for design and fabrication.
For online classes, students are responsible for purchasing their own software for class. Trial versions of the software are sometimes available on the Autodesk website, but at this time there are no discounts available for Continuing Studies students.
This course is offered in partnership with OCAD University to offer a wide range of courses for enhancing your career expertise in web, design, photography, analytics, and technology.
