Building Information Modeling at an affordable price!

Business Development
There are many indications that Building Information Modeling (BIM) is going to be much more prevalent, and even required by owners and developers in the near future. The very substantial cost to implement this software has always been a roadblock to many contractors though. ABC National has a alternative to this now! You can learn more at the ABC Winter Convention on February 6, 2014.
Project Virtual
, ABC's newest member benefit (in partnership with Synergis Engineering Design Solutions), was announced during the Institute for Leadership and Professional Development last week in Las Vegas. Project Virtual brings affordable and effective BIM training and solutions to ABC members so they can better plan, build, and manage buildings and infrastructure. Two features of the program are available now: live training and a member discount program with up to 10 percent off Autodesk products. Soon, Project Virtual will include a skills assessment, certifications and an offering that will allow ABC members to take advantage of BIM technology at any time. In the next few weeks, webinars will be available to explain all the details of Project Virtual.
If you do one thing this week, return this

to register for training
and visit
abcprojectvirtual.com
to learn more about the program. To take advantage of the discount, email
abc.projectvirtual@synergis.com
or call (800) 836-5440 and ask for the "ABC team."
