Refined over many years for an optimal learning experience
This training will definitely help my career. I was able to show my supervisor and co-workers what Revit has to offer and what I'm capable of when the time comes for creating that BIM Team in the future. I was able to provide documentation to my employer that the money spent was well worth it and the training I received at VDCI will become an asset moving forward.
