In the interview below we hear (and see) some fantastic insights from the “BIM Evangelist” Victor Arcos about how he is simplifying the BIM Management university masters program using LOD Planner. We learn how the university has changed from 2D to 3D – now even using Virtual Reality for reviewing their students work! In the first year students learn 2D drafting skills, then progress to using Revit and Archicad in years 2 and 3 for creating 3D models. In year 4 they take a year in industry – to put their skills to work. In the last year (Year 5) students are taught the SmartLeanBIM workflow – learning what a BIM Manager needs to know so that they can manage BIM on real projects when they graduate. This workflow is taught using LOD Planner – for BIM Execution Planning (BEP) , BIM Scoping and BIM Management . The students also use Vico Office for 4D and 5D deliverables. The LOD Planner platform is free to use for education institutions –
