The scope of the class will include a hands-on approach to teaching the technical aspects and best practices of building Revit families.

Bayer has more than 14 years of experience in BIM technologies implementation and education in organizations nationally. He focuses on the communication and collaboration aspects of BIM with design partners, building owners and subcontractors through the construction process. He is a certified Revit Architecture Expert and an Associate Member (Wisconsin) of the American Institute of Architects.
