Opening our doors to FREE training – Reflecting on the Excitech training event

I’m Alan Skipp, and I’m the Training Delivery Manager for Excitech. I tend to spend a lot of my time in the office, however, Excitech recently held a training event at our Bishopsgate, London training centre, where I had the pleasure of meet a few of our clients. During his event, Excitech provided a number of free sample training sessions and the opportunity to meet some of our trainers.

Bishopsgate is a terrific training centre in the heart of London and is very popular with our customers. Our aim was to showcase this centre, and more importantly some of our talented people who have been responsible for delivery so much technical knowledge over the years.

We provided twelve one-hour training presentations held in our two training rooms, covering eleven subject matters. At the heart of this were a number of CAD Training courses, including:

• Autodesk Revit Architecture - https://www.excitech.co.uk/Services/Training/Training-Courses/Autodesk-Revit-Architecture-Fundamentals
• Autodesk Revit Structure RC Detailing - https://www.excitech.co.uk/Services/Training/Training-Courses/RC-Detailing-with-Revit-Structure-2016
• Autodesk Revit MEP - https://www.excitech.co.uk/Services/Training/Training-Courses/Autodesk-Revit-MEP-Fundamentals
• Dynamo for Revit - https://www.excitech.co.uk/Services/Training/Training-Courses/Dynamo-Fundamentals-for-Autodesk-Revit
• Autodesk Civil 3D - https://www.excitech.co.uk/Services/Training/Training-Courses/AutoCAD-Civil-3D-Fundamentals
• Autodesk AutoCAD - https://www.excitech.co.uk/Services/Training/Training-Courses/AutoCAD-AutoCAD-LT-Essentials
• Navisworks - https://www.excitech.co.uk/Services/Training/Training-Courses/Autodesk-Navisworks-Essentials
• 3DS Max - https://www.excitech.co.uk/Services/Training/Training-Courses/Autodesk-3ds-Max-Fundamentals
• Infraworks - https://www.excitech.co.uk/Services/Training/Training-Courses/InfraWorks-for-Civil-Engineering
• Inventor - Sheet Metal Design - https://www.excitech.co.uk/Services/Training/Training-Courses/Autodesk-Inventor-Sheet-Metal-Design
• Inventor - Design Automation - https://www.excitech.co.uk/Services/Training/Training-Courses/Inventor-Certified-User-Part-1

The Dynamo session was the most popular of the sessions, so much so that we ended up putting on two sessions. To provide the expertise, we had six trainers on hand, each an expert in their own subject area.

During the day, we also had an opportunity to learn a little more about our own customers, so took time to have a chat. It was great hearing about their individual industries and stories, and to learn about their thoughts on training as individuals and how their organisations see training. It was particularly heartening to learn that in many cases training is embedded as part of their company culture, and classroom training is still the preferred method for the majority of our clients. Furthermore, it was interesting to learn, that many view the “basic training” course as only part of the journey and not the destination, so most saw the value in furthering their skills through more advanced training.

I hope those who attended learnt something new and will visit us again for further training. We have some very talented people here at Excitech who can help our customers effectively use some amazing products and help them with their personal learning journey.
