Description
BIM for Facility Management (7D BIM) — Full Curriculum
This course takes you through the complete 7D BIM framework — from foundational concepts and team roles through strategy, open standards, and full facility life cycle integration. Every module is built around real-world BIM workflows used by MEP engineers, BIM coordinators, and facility management teams operating across the GCC.
