What students said
I've been working in Revit for two years building theatrical/entertainment lighting models. When I started there were no resources on how to use Revit for theater, so I had to figure it out by myself. Every PerformanceBIM class I've taken has taught me something new that I would have never figured out on my own. It's made my workflow much more efficient and saved me tons of work hours!

If you are looking to either learn or further your knowledge in BIM and Revit practices I highly recommend you take courses with Performance BIM. As a designer of entertainment venues, I realized the need for an understanding of BIM practices to better assist my clients. Jason and I setup a course plan that was specific to working in the entertainment industry while also addressing the broader knowledge required to run the BIM software. The classes covered everything from the basics of Revit, such as understanding the user interface, creating and modifying families, to more advanced topics like parametric modeling, creating complex workflows, and coordinating across disciplines. The content is highly relevant, and it provides a deep dive into BIM practices. The course comes with everything I needed as well as some extra content to help out. I now feel confident that I can better manage a project using the information I've learned through this Performance BIM course.
