Class Overview
Autodesk Revit is building information modelling software tool used by architecture, engineering, and construction teams to create buildings and infrastructure. It allows users to create, edit, and review 3D models in exceptional detail. In our Revit class series, learn how to use the most popular software used to design, document, visualize, and deliver high-quality projects.
In this beginning class, you'll learn the basics such as Revit workspace and interface, drawing and editing tools, levels and grids, walls, curtain walls, windows, doors, floors, setting up sheets for plotting, and more.
Revit is known to be challenging to learn, and so this class series will allow you to make quick progress and be able to advance faster than you would on your own. Get comfortable with the Revit software and prepare yourself for Revit - Level 2 (see all of our Revit and industrial design classes).
