Synchro 4D Pro Advanced Training Course

This course is intended for individuals who wish to learn about the advanced methods of visual planning, features and tools of SYNCHRO 4D Pro for project management and virtual work simulation through 4D BIM.

What will you Learn?

This course utilises realistic project scenarios to help participants better understand the sophistication of project lifecycle by learning and practicing a combination of features. By the end of this course, you will be able to leverage a combination of features in various complex situations:

• Work and operation plans validation,
• Efficient project communication,
• Presentation of project aspects or issues,
• Multipoint coordination,
• Work optimisation,
• Project problem solving,
• Analytics and decision making.

The instructor will also provide best practice suggestions and tips relevant to the topics discussed.

Course Details

• Length: Two days
• Time: 8.30 am to 5.00 pm
• Where: Online or in-person

Pre-requisites:

This advanced course requires participants to be familiar with the basic SYNCHRO 4D Pro features in order to quickly navigate through the program to find the features and functions being taught.

Delegates should therefore either have previous project-based hands-on experience using SYNCHRO 4D Pro, or have attended the SYNCHRO 4D Pro Fundamentals course
