Fridays with Trimble Webinars
The Fridays with Trimble webinars are a free, educational series geared towards general contractors and construction managers. Our topics range from BIM trends, to case studies and best practices, to new concepts for the industry.
Check back often to see our upcoming episodes - an easy way to know when to tune in!
We also archive our Fridays with Trimble episodes so you can watch them at your convenience. We have them grouped at the bottom of this page by category and job title to make it them easy to navigate... and make sure that you don’t miss an episode!
Many GCs enjoy creating a week-long lunch and learn session with our archived webinar series. Simply reserve the conference room for lunch on Monday through Friday, grab a projector and some extra speakers, and have everyone enjoy the sessions with their brown bag lunch (or order in pizza). We love getting phone calls from whole teams after they have just viewed a webinar!
