Revit Fundamentals for Beginners

Have a working knowledge of all the fundamentals of the software, 3 CPD Sacap credit (Cat 1)


COURSE CONTENT

This is not your average software course. By the end of these three days, you won’t just be clicking buttons — you’ll have actually designed and finished a complete tiny house inside Revit. That means: a proper floor plan with measurements, clear drawings of the front and side of your house (elevations), a door and window list (schedule), and even a 3D view that looks like the real thing.

We’ve built this course so that you walk away with something finished, a small house project that shows you can now use Revit in a real way. If you’ve ever felt nervous about starting Revit, don’t worry. We’ll guide you step by step, slowly, and keep it practical and hands-on.

Important Prerequisite

👉 You must already have Autodesk Revit installed on your laptop before the course begins.
We cannot provide the software. It’s essential that you arrive with Revit ready to go, otherwise you won’t be able to complete the assignment.

What You’ll Learn

Day 1: Getting Started

  • How to open Revit and move around inside it

Day 2: Building the House

  • How to put on a roof

  • How to add ceilings inside

Day 3: Finishing Touches

  • Door/window schedules, material take-offs

  • Camera views, walkthroughs, graphic styles

  • Exporting (PDF, CAD), print management

  • Intro to collaboration tools

This workshop is engaging and will involve a Q&A component. A CPD certificate of completion will be awarded to each attendee.
