Graphisoft Learn
Graphisoft Learn is an innovative, modern, and flexible learning program that helps users get the most out of Graphisoft’s solutions and services through individual courses, learning paths, and learning bundles specific to industry roles and responsibilities. Graduates of the online self-paced, hybrid, and live Learn programs receive globally recognized certification, further strengthening their competitive edge in the AEC industry.

“I was very impressed by the versatility of the Learn Portal — it offered more than I expected, and it really felt tailor-made,” said Ruben Groot, BIM Manager and Architect at Groot Architecture. In busy times, the Learn Portal offers me an opportunity to delve further into BIM in the areas that are important to me at times that suit me. It enabled me, both as an architect and an external BIM manager, to get the most out of Archicad and to help other architectural firms with the aim of making better buildings through better BIM.”

What’s new in Graphisoft Learn
With today’s release of Archicad 26, the first of three bundles is now available for purchase at learn.graphisoft.com. The Model Authoring Bundle includes 20 self-paced video courses and 14 trainer-led online courses, organized in several learning paths around modeling, documentation, design options, and BIM workflows. Upon successful completion of the courses, users are awarded the Archicad BIM Author Certificate.

Additional training bundles will be available for purchase later this year. These include:

• Model Management Bundle: equips users with the knowledge required to coordinate a model and manage project delivery.
• Office Management Bundle: includes materials related to BIM standards, office-level BIM practices, and people and management processes, all required to run a BIM-enabled practice.
