My experience was excellent! I think the staff and faculty were excellent. Everyone was very knowledgeable and were always there to help and guide you through the courses. I appreciate all their help!

My experience at VDCI was amazing! My favorite aspect of the program was getting to build my own project. I now have a better understanding of CAD/Revit.
Kaylee Clay
The training gave me a foundation to build upon drafting.

Outstanding!
Estela Bilbao Love
I changed from taking a few courses to deciding to complete the entire BIM course halfway through. The staff was very helpful helping me with all the paperwork and transcript requests needed to make this happen. I took this program to learn BIM for projects that require it contractually, where AutoCAD is not allowed, and to stay current in the industry. This course was just what I needed to bridge the gap between trying to teach myself and being given a solid path to follow. I learned more in 9 months than I did nearly 10 years casually trying to pick this up on my own. It was not easy, but it shouldn't be. Very happy with the results!

Professor O'Malley has once again been invaluable to my experience here. He's incredibly helpful, quick to respond and very forgiving.

The certificate program in BIM modeling is absolutely fantastic. I gained a wealth of knowledge, and the teachers and staff were incredibly supportive. I've already recommended it to my peers. I'm truly grateful to be part of the team. Massive thanks to our teachers!
Deifilia Montoya
Awesome program, and keep up the good work!
Nicholas Mecir
Amazing program! The courses were manageable in regard to time and the videos were well documented and easy to follow along. The professors were responsive and provided useful feedback. VDCI coordinators also helped me find a great job after graduation and followed up with me to ensure I was still being cared for. I believe that fulfilling these trainings and gaining these skills has helped me to change my life for the better. Thank you for giving me a chance and helping me succeed!

There was never a time during the program where I felt lost or felt like I was falling behind. The professors were always available for questions and the online interface was easy to use and chalk full of resources to help me learn and hone in my skills.

Though my current career is not in the CAD arena, this training helped me to better comprehend some of the technical tools we use to support our military. For my future career in drafting and design, this program taught me very valuable skills and attention to detail that will help me produce quality drawings.
Sarah Barker
I have VDCI to thank entirely for my career. The price I paid for the program is incredible compared to their competition in the market.
John Sikora
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.

VDCI training courses definitely helped me to get a job in the field. At the moment, I work as a building designer (architectural technician) and I have been using part of what I learned from their courses. A lot of what I learned in Revit when taking Revit courses at VDCI have been translated into my job with success.
Leandro Lazzarti
I ended up going with VDCI because they allowed a faster program, you can be done in under a year and it was vastly cheaper, but one of the one of the main reasons I went with VDCI was because of the hands-on experience and just the real practical real-life situations that they offered in the program. After I got hired my boss actually told me that I had more experience just from coming out of school than most of the people they hired from a two-year institution, so that just goes to show you because real engineers teach the program a VDCI you just get more like real-life problems and real life situations. And they do a good job of taking you through that.

Over the last 25 years, I've worked in the fields of interior, lighting, web and graphic design. At some point I took a sabbatical to raise three kids. With the design industry constantly changing, I needed to find a way to get up to speed. VDCI was instrumental in getting me back into the workforce. I decided to go back to my interior design roots and looked into AutoCAD and BIM. Back in college, we drafted on vellum and fed them through blueprint machines. Within a matter of months, I learned how to produce the same types of construction documents with AutoCAD and Revit in a fraction of the time. From day one, the staff at VDCI guided me every step of the way. They offered both onsite night classes that worked with my schedule and the convenience of online classes. The online instructors corresponded promptly whenever I had any questions. Victoria Stover was my point of contact, and I can truly say I couldn't have made it work without her. She was accessible on a daily basis and worked around my schedule regarding planning courses and certification exams. She is gold. I am now working for an architect firm doing design development, construction documents and rendering. Revit is a robust program, and I’m learning new functionality on a daily basis. I took both certification courses in AutoCAD and Revit. If anyone is interested in working in the design industry, VDCI will give you the foundation you need to relaunch your career.

My experience with this course was great! Michael Wilson, who was my instructor helped me with any issues I had and gave great feedback. By the end of the training I am now able to use Revit after having no experience at all with the program.
Makayla Fitch
It helps me two ways currently. My resume with this badge gives me more opportunities. This is because I already appear professional. Second, as part of my services I get income for my designs. In the future if needed I can draw for a few firms here as well.
Cainan Asbury
I appreciate the detailed videos and ability to pause and replay easily as I worked through the projects.

The instructor was great and thoroughly explained topics in the videos.

When I reached out to my instructor about an issue I was having he immediately got back to me.

Very helpful because I used AutoCAD and Revit every day.

I thought it was a good experience and was able to really understand all the content. My teacher, David, was awesome at giving feedback and answering questions in a timely manner. It was a great program.

I had a very positive experience in completing this program! While all the instructors were great, Mr. O'Malley and Ms. Cortis both stand out in my mind as exceptional. Both of them went beyond just answering my questions, but provided extra resources and in-depth feedback. Both were extremely helpful and much appreciated. I am still amazed that I learned so much in such a short period of time. The hands-on approach used in the courses was fantastic, because I not only learned about the programs, but how to actually use them to produce real drawings and models. Also, in addition to the great instructors, the other VDCI staff have been very supportive and wonderful to work with. I am 100% happy with my decision to go with VDCI for this program.

I enjoyed my experience a lot. I found it to be very informative and flexible and exactly what I needed to expand into the career that I hope to get. I was satisfied with my instructors. I found my practicum professor. Megan Lacy, stood out to me the most. The VDCI staff was always very helpful and quick to respond to any questions or concerns I had though out my whole experience in the program. I found the practicum to be the most enjoyable and confidence building part of the program. It allowed me to combine everything I learned and really solidified the skills that I had learned through out my program.

I've really enjoyed my experience at VDCI and will definitely recommend them to anyone I know who wants to learn the programs. The teachers are very informative, they work in the real world of what they teach, and are attentive to their students. The admin staff has also been great and are still super helpful even after I've completed the program.

Very fun and educational. The PFC 501 course helped to showcase the skills I learned!
Jesse Mock
Great courses, I can finally put the course material to use in my current job. The final part- PFC 501- in my certification program was by far my favorite! I really enjoyed modeling my current home. I received a lot of great feedback and feel like I am prepared for the next chapter of my career! My instructor was VERY prompt in answering any questions that I had. He also gave me a lot of great feedback and encouragement!

This program was very helpful for me to start my career in the drafting/design trade. I was very satisfied with the courses and my instructors. Whenever I had a question or needed help trying to figure out the software, they did their best to help answer my questions.

I really enjoyed the whole course overall. It was amazing to see how the software had changed over the years and the ease that some of it had evolved into. All the instructors that I had over the whole course were very knowledgeable in their fields and were able to help whenever software issues arose. They were always available for questions; they would give good feedback with the work that was submitted for grading, which helped as I moved along in the course. I look forward to working in the field and expanding on it by continuing with future classes in 3D and Navis.

The videos and overall experience was great. At times it was tough getting through all the material but making the time to do it definitely paid off in the end! Thank you VDCI for the help in this achievement.

Overall, I had a great experience. I was a bit frustrated in the beginning but that quickly went away, and I feel like I finished strong. I think all the instructors were great! Derek Cuttsinger stands out to me because he responded to my questions/problems very quickly and because of the time zone difference, time was of the essence. I also received a lot of good feedback from him which really helped me complete my final.

Extremely informative and intuitive. Both the teachers and the course helped guide me through the learning process very well. Having started knowing absolutely nothing, I can say my knowledge on CAD/BIM has expanded greatly through the lessons I took. Thanks for always being so kind and understanding as I went through my course, the staff at VDCI have all been a pleasure to meet.

I appreciated the self paced nature which helped me to take advantage of a lot of down time I had and VDCI seamlessly supported me at the pace I wanted to go. The knowledge gained from the course was excellent and thorough and provided me with a great base of understanding the software Revit. I look forward to using everything I learned in order to get Autodesk certified as my next goal.
Cody Aikens
I've really enjoyed every instructor I've had. Full disclaimer, before quarantine I was kind of on track to becoming a machinist, but college and it's instructors just weren't always great for me. VDCI's instructors and experts have been wonderful at every step I got to. I cannot stress enough just how much that means for a guy with a touch of learning disabilities.
Kyle Eirschele
Everything I’ve learned about CAD/BIM at VDCI will help me to design residential and commercial projects and put them on sheets.
