Ask five people on a project for "the current model" and you'll often get five different answers — a version mismatch that quietly derails schedules and budgets. BIM Coordination replaces that confusion with a single, managed source of truth that every discipline works from and trusts.

The BIM Project Coordination and Digital Information Management training course, delivered by Arab British Fellowship Training Academy, takes participants from setting up coordination roles and a working execution plan through hands-on model coordination, Common Data Environment management, ISO 19650 compliance, and the digital twin outcomes that coordinated data makes possible.

Who Should Attend?

• BIM Coordinators, Managers, and Information Managers
• Design Managers and Multidisciplinary Engineering Teams
• Project and Construction Managers Overseeing BIM-Enabled Projects
• Digital Engineering and Information Management Professionals
• Consultants and Client-Side Teams Managing Project Information Requirements
