Revit Electrical – Beyond the Basics

So, you know the basics of Revit Electrical – how to work with spaces, levels, and basic electrical systems – but you want to be able to do more. If you’re looking to extend that basic skill set and make the Revit electrical tools work specifically for your type of project and want to customize Revit output to meet your own needs, then this is the course for you. This course has been designed for users with a solid understanding of Revit Electrical features who need to develop more control over functionality and output within that system.

This eight (8) hour course is delivered in four (4), two-hour long sessions that students can attend online, right from their own desk. A live instructor will explain the detailed functions, and address questions as the class progresses.

Note: Instructor will present using Autodesk Revit 2023. Students who wish to follow along with instructor are encouraged to use the same version. Students should have a solid understanding of Revit or have taken the Revit Electrical Essentials course. 

Cost is per person. Must attend all four sessions.
