It is a very well-structured course. You can do it at your own pace online. Take quizzes as if you are playing games. I like the colloquium, the face-to-face part very much. You can ask questions which will then be addressed by Calvin and his team. My dream is to promote BIM literacy in Hong Kong.

After completing the Foundation-Basic (openBIM®) course provided by SBI for buildingSMART, I would recommend it to my industry peers. The course was self-paced, online and in a format that met my needs. The information was relevant and equipped me with a broader understanding of BIM and its importance to the Civil Infrastructure industry.
