June 30, 2016 —  Ideate BIMLink
Ideate BIMLink for Revit MEP Projects — REGISTER

Your time is valuable. The accuracy of your Revit model is critical. Take this online class, designed specifically for MEP professionals, to get step-by-step instructions on how to complete five BIM tasks often requested by our MEP clients: managing Space Types for energy analysis, expediting duct accessory information, managing device data, addressing duplicate type marks, and managing data onsite and in the cloud with Google docs. Through our real-life examples, you will learn how to use Ideate BIMLink to pull data from Revit into Excel for easy and powerful editing, and then push it back into Revit with ease, speed, and accuracy.

July 7, 2016 — Ideate Sticky
Introduction to Ideate Sticky — REGISTER

Revit is an outstanding tool for managing BIM data. But what about the critical non-BIM data, such as code checklists, design data, consultant’s data, project dashboard data, and general notes? Revit users have developed some creative workarounds, but each comes with challenges. Take this online class to see how Ideate Sticky solves the problem by enabling you to “stick” or link Excel files containing non-BIM data onto your Revit files. We will walk you through real-life examples, demonstrating how edits entered once in Excel are reflected in Sticky Schedules across multiple Revit projects. You will learn how Ideate Sticky can help you ensure that your entire team is always accessing the most current data. ​

Auditing Your Revit Project with Ideate Explorer — REGISTER

Hidden DWGs, misplaced elements on Worksets, not following BIM standards, and other factors can negatively impact Revit file performance. Take this online class to see how to keep your Revit projects clean in just five minutes a week by using Ideate Explorer. Ideate Explorer is a Model Browser as opposed to a Project Browser, which means that it enables you to search through all 100,000+ elements in a Revit project with many different methods. We will walk you through the steps to inspect and clean up 10 key areas: Element Count; Model/Detail Lines/Keynotes and Revisions; Text and Dimensions; Families; Views; Grids, Levels, and Reference Planes; Groups; Worksets; and Imports. You will learn how to keep your Revit files in top working order while simplifying your quality control processes. ​
