# Revit MEP Professional Fast-Track Program 100% online with software, live support, and industry-recognized certificate Canonical URL: ## Overview The Revit MEP Professional Training Fast Track Program is designed for students who want to pursue careers in the Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing fields. The program begins with the fundamentals of Revit and BIM and progresses into MEP specific workflows using Revit MEP tools within the BIM process. These courses prepare students to take the Revit MEP Certified User Certification Exam while building the skills and workflows used professionally by MEP engineers and support staff. Students learn how to create MEP systems in Revit MEP for construction documentation and coordination, implement efficient workflow strategies, and produce construction documents directly from a model file. The program also covers work sharing for larger projects and demonstrates how collaborative workflows are applied in practice. In addition, students explore methodologies for transforming an MEP building model into construction ready documentation and complete a full set of working construction documents that include annotations, detail callouts, and general notes. ## What you'll learn - Revit MEP Fundamentals: Introduction to Revit MEP tools and BIM concepts. - System Modeling: Design and model HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems. - Construction Documentation: Generate detailed construction documents for MEP systems. - Navisworks Integration: Use Navisworks for clash detection and model coordination. - Professional Workflows: Apply industry-standard MEP workflows in a BIM environment. ## Curriculum 1. **Intro to Revit Course Online** 2. **Intermediate Revit Course Online** 3. **Revit Mechanical Course Online** 4. **Revit Plumbing Course Online** 5. **Navisworks Course Online** ## Instructors ### Michael Wilson — Instructor Michael is an Instructor for VDCI San Diego focusing on teaching and creating Revit courses to help students learn workflows through project based exercises that can be applied to real world projects.
