Great course! Very informative, already looking into other classes to add to my portfolio.

Michael is great. Responsive and works through all obstacles.

Truly an excellent course. I appreciated the clarity, pacing, and overall learning experience. I also really appreciated the instructor’s patience, clarity, and enthusiasm. They made the course feel welcoming and motivating. Thank you!

Good course, helped me feel prepared for taking on responsibilities new to me at work

Pretty good course! The instructor did awesome!

Was perfect!

It's been very helpful, and I now feel ready to start using Bluebeam to perform takeoffs/estimates. And the instructor is very helpful. I was confused about some instructions, and he was very helpful.

Michael is fantastic!! Very knowledgeable on all topics, showed multiple ways of doing things, and threw in a little humor, which was nice.

Great course. I would highly recommend it for anyone looking to make the switch from AutoCAD to Revit. Great instructor too - always checked up on me.

This course allowed me to learn a new way of working that is much more professional and efficient. I am grateful for the online format and the way in which we complemented the acquired knowledge through quizzes and assignments. It was noticeable that the instructor was highly trained and took the time to prepare each class before explaining it, and that he was very effective in each video, covering the need for what needed to be explained.

I think the lectures work really well for getting the hang of working in Revit quickly, seeing mistakes fixed, and the different ways to get certain things done.

I would like to share that this course has been very valuable for me. Although I have several years of experience working with AutoCAD, I still learned many new concepts and techniques that I was not familiar with before. The course content was well-organized, and the instructor explained the topics clearly and effectively. I truly appreciate the effort and dedication of the instructor. Thank you for offering such a helpful and informative course.

It felt very helpful.

I'm enjoying the content of this course. Highly professional. So well explained. Quickly replied to all my questions.

Great course. Thank you for all your prompt responses and help when needed.

The course content was very detailed and easy to understand. The lecturer was able to break down the complex construction information and drawings into smaller bits that were much easier for me to relate to.

Instructor Becca Lockwood was amazing, being fast and diligent in grading my projects and providing very constructive feedback. This course was amazing with pacing and valuable information, especially in being current with today's times.

Great starter course. Very informative.

Great direction from the instructor during the course.

This is my 2nd time taking it. Fast at first, but if you retrace your steps over and over, you will understand and be able to model correctly. The instructor is always available if you need help. Checks in during the class to make sure you are coming along well.

I am new to Revit and learned a lot from the course.

Amazing!

The best!

Michael was very helpful and prompt in his replies. Thank you!

I like the course, and I'm happy.

The course was really well organized, which helped me understand everything.

Everything was great. I found it very helpful.

I think the course was great and helped me understand much more about the documents. From a basic learning standpoint, I found the class helpful in trying to understand what I am seeing on individual documents.

It is certainly a step up in complexity and difficulty from the previous 4 courses. This being said, the information is all very useful and delivered at a good pace!

Overall, the course served its purpose for the basics of blueprint reading and helped me understand a few new things

Very helpful and professional instructor!

This course has a lot of useful information, so it's worth taking. The instructor is really knowledgeable, easy to reach, and responsive. He promptly responded to all my questions in a clear and easy-to-understand way.

Enjoyed the course. Great instructor videos.

The course taught me a lot. The instructor was great and answered my questions promptly.

Great course. I enjoyed the speed at which the material was taught. I didn't feel like I was sitting around wasting time, and easy enough to pause and go back if I needed. Great workflow.

Provided a good base reminder on program use, which is what I was hoping to get from the class.

Very well-made program!

The course is really helpful and informative. The instructor seems very nice. I'll ask more questions later on during the course.

Hands-on questions where I can use a blueprint to find different items or sections.

The course was good.

Really helpful and glad that I took the course. Michael W. was very helpful and prompt with his responses to my issues. Thank you!!!!!

Thought the course was excellent. I'm going to play around with the software a bit more. Thanks for getting back to me about the issues I was having with the quizzes!

A great and informative course!

I really appreciated having Derek as an instructor for this course. I reached out several times throughout, especially while navigating challenges related to differences between PC and Mac versions, as well as variations between SketchUp versions. Derek was consistently helpful, responsive, and patient in addressing my questions. He made an effort to clarify things in a way that was easy to understand and helped me stay on track despite the technical hurdles. His support definitely made a difference in my learning experience, and I’m grateful for his guidance throughout the course.

Overall, 302 is a wonderful course. And the instructor was very prompt and helpful in their responses. Much appreciated that!

Overall was good.

The course is great. The instructor has a great mastery of the subject. I feel like a professional already, just going through the course.

Everything is explained very clearly at a beginner-friendly level, which is fantastic.
