From existing ground to shared information

See the wider site.
Develop the details.

Infrastructure BIM connects a project's setting with the information needed to develop and review it. Terrain, road geometry, drainage networks and structural elements each play a part in explaining the design.

Our BIM for Infrastructure course in Sharjah brings those tasks into a 120-hour learning path. Explore concept development in InfraWorks, detailed civil modelling in Civil 3D, structural components in Revit and coordinated review in Navisworks Manage.

Learn how models support plans, profiles, sections and quantities, then consider how teams share revisions through cloud collaboration. Coordinate systems, model versions and the limits of each exchange are part of understanding the workflow.

The program suits civil and highway engineers, infrastructure designers, survey and GIS professionals, structural modellers and engineering graduates. Discuss your current CAD experience and intended responsibilities with admissions.

01 / UNDERSTAND

Put the site in context.

Use terrain and surrounding features to explain the setting, constraints and concept options for a sample project.

02 / DEVELOP

Connect geometry and information.

Build surfaces, corridors, utility networks and structural elements that support useful project documentation.

03 / COORDINATE

Make model review useful.

Check model interfaces, communicate selected findings and understand how controlled exchanges support teamwork.

06Cloud collaboration & applied project deliveryForma Design Collaboration, formerly BIM Collaborate Pro
  • Understand common data environment concepts, project access and team responsibilities.
  • Explore Civil 3D and Revit cloud collaboration workflows supported by the available software access.
  • Review model publishing, shared packages, revisions and design team communication.
  • Present the sample project's context, civil model, structural elements and coordination findings.

Practical outcome: Explain a controlled model exchange and present the information behind your infrastructure project.

Admissions will confirm the current syllabus, project scope, software versions and practical access for your batch. Cloud activities depend on the project permissions and software access provided.

Put the learning to work

Show the project.
Explain the decisions.

Develop a sample infrastructure project that connects context, civil geometry, selected structural elements and model review. A useful portfolio shows the output and your understanding of how it was produced.

Discuss the project brief and assessment requirements with admissions. Your project work can include the four deliverables shown here.

Clear answers before you join

Questions about infrastructure BIM?

Who is this BIM for Infrastructure course for?

The program suits civil and highway engineers, infrastructure designers, CAD draftspersons, survey and GIS professionals, structural modellers and engineering graduates. Share your background and the role you are preparing for so admissions can explain the starting level.

Can I join if I am new to Civil 3D or Revit?

Basic civil drawing knowledge is helpful. If you are new to CAD, Civil 3D or Revit, discuss foundation learning and the preparation suited to you. Admissions will advise whether the combined program or a focused introductory course is the better starting point.

How is this different from a standalone Civil 3D course?

A focused Civil 3D course concentrates on civil modelling and documentation. This combined infrastructure program adds InfraWorks context modelling, Revit structural components, Navisworks Manage review and cloud collaboration. Compare the current syllabuses with admissions before choosing your path.

How long is the training?

The standard BIM for Infrastructure program includes 120 training hours. The number of calendar weeks depends on your class frequency and selected batch. Contact admissions to confirm available weekday or weekend options and the current timetable.

How do InfraWorks, Civil 3D and Revit work together?

InfraWorks helps explore site context and concept proposals; Civil 3D develops detailed civil geometry and drawings; Revit supports structural component modelling. The course explores supported exchanges between them. Coordinates, software versions and transferred model information need to be checked during each exchange.

Is BIM Collaborate Pro now called Forma Design Collaboration?

Yes. Autodesk now uses the name Forma Design Collaboration for the product formerly called BIM Collaborate Pro. It supports design collaboration, including Civil 3D and Revit cloud workflows. Forma Site Design is a separate product for early site planning. Explore cloud collaboration training ↗

Will I work on an infrastructure project?

The applied learning path connects site context, civil modelling, selected structural components and model review. Discuss the sample project brief, expected outputs and assessment requirements with admissions. Project work can include models, drawings, quantity review and a coordination presentation.

Can I study in Sharjah or attend online live classes?

Discuss classroom training at our Al Majaz 1 location in Sharjah or live online learning from the UAE and GCC. You can also enquire about Dubai's Business Bay and Burjuman branch options and Abu Dhabi scheduling. Format, branch, timing and language availability depend on your selected batch.

What software and cloud access will I need?

Ask admissions about the software versions, computer requirements, installation guidance and access available for your batch. Civil 3D and Revit cloud workflows require suitable authoring software, collaboration access and project permissions. Confirm these arrangements before enrolment.

Which certificates will I receive?

Ask about the eligible Autodesk course-completion credentials and CADD International certificate included in your enrolment. Confirm completion requirements, any separate professional certification exams and optional KHDA attestation charges with the team.

How do I get the fee and next starting date?
