Bluebeam Revu: Basics

At Ideate, we have recently made enhancements to our core curriculum and are offering several new training courses. Our goal is to always be providing our customers with more value, more options, and the assurance they will have access to continued education and support after they have taken a course with us. One of these new courses, I am very excited to announce, is Bluebeam Revu: Basics. 

Bluebeam Revu: Basics will focus on the fundamentals of Bluebeam’s award-winning PDF markup and collaboration software. As a Bluebeam Certified Instructor (BCI) and Technical Consultant (BTC), I will have the pleasure of instructing our first certified Bluebeam Course, starting this December.

As you might be aware, a large percentage of the architecture, engineering, construction, and owner (AECO) industry has adopted Bluebeam Revu as part of their PDF markup and collaboration workflows. With Bluebeam Revu, users can easily generate markups on PDF’s and collaborate with other users during live Studio Sessions. Because Bluebeam Revu saves files in PDF format, any recipient can easily open files using their own PDF software.

Our Bluebeam Certified Course will shorten the learning curve for attendees by focusing on the foundational skills needed to use Bluebeam Revu and achieve greater productivity with any project type. We will be focusing on PDF markup and collaboration workflows through the use of hands-on activities and AECO industry-based datasets. To ensure trainees are well equipped with resources after training, everyone will be given a quality workbook and datasets to take with them.

Topics for this course include the following:

• Introduction to Revu
• Overview of the Revu interface, navigation, and profiles
• The Markup Tools
• Revu Stamps
• The Tool Chest
• The Markups List
• PDF Creation
• Document Management and Setup
• Introduction to Studio
• Studio Sessions
• Studio Projects
• Additional Resources
• Next Steps
• Q & A

If you are ready to get started learning the best way to work with Bluebeam Revu for markups and collaboration, come join me this December at our San Francisco office for what should be a very compelling first class!
