If you are heading up the BIM Department in your firm, please share with your team the 5D BIM Checklist, a listing of what functionality is available today from BIM technology, and likewise, what you can be offering Owners as BIM capabilities. We also have the BIM Master Class Series which includes over fourteen hours of coursework to get everyone up to speed on BIM.
We also offer a step-by-step guide to our 5D virtual construction workflow with video tutorials. These videos are just 2-5 minutes in length, but illustrate how to use a particular piece of functionality. You can access the videos here:
Level 1 Cost Planner Training
Level 2 Cost Planner Training

It is important to point out that the videos show the workflow and the integration between roles in a construction firm. So even if you are not an estimator, it is interesting to learn how your data feeds the estimating workflow and how they arrived at the information they are feeding you.
