Training on AI in BIM

What artificial intelligence does on BIM models, with which tools, within which limits and under which rules: training for designers, contractors, clients and training providers, compliant with the AI Act.

At a glance

B1P Group's course on artificial intelligence in BIM explains what AI already does today on information models (recognition, automated checking, automation, reading information requirements), with which tools and within which limits, and how to use it in compliance with Regulation (EU) 2024/1689. It is aimed at designers, contractors, clients and training providers, with exercises on real cases from B1P Group's projects.

Definition

What does the AI in BIM course include?

Four parts. What AI does on models: element classification, automated checking, automation in Revit and Civil 3D, assistants for tender documents, with demonstrations of the tools in use. How to use it: writing a task, checking the result, measuring the savings, understanding where it goes wrong. The rules: the AI Act, obligations from 2 August 2026, human oversight, data and confidentiality, internal rules of use. The workshop: a real case for each role, from BIM specialist to RUP.

The course does not sell tools and does not promise that AI will do the design: it teaches you to use it for the tasks where it saves time and to keep it out of those that need an engineer who signs off.

Duration and format: Half-day seminar for management and professional bodies; one- or two-day course for technical teams; in-company workshop on the client's models; in the classroom, live online or at the client's premises; groups of up to eight for workshops
Who it is for: BIM specialists, coordinators and managers; technical management of design firms and contractors; RUPs and contracting authority officials; members of professional bodies; training providers that want the module in their own catalogue
Attendance certificate and requirements: Certificate of attendance under the training provider's brand or B1P Group's; CPD credits through the organising professional body; for workshops, a computer with Revit or Civil 3D and a model to work on

AI in BIM course

What is the programme?

Part one: what language models and the AI tools used in BIM are, what they do well and what they do not, with demonstrations of classification, checking and automation on real models. Part two: the method, how to write a task, how to check it, how to measure the time saved, which data can be given to which tools. Part three: the AI Act and the rules of use, with a template internal policy to adapt. Part four: workshop by role.

For contracting authorities there is a dedicated version: what to ask and what not to ask about AI in exchange information requirements, and how to evaluate a tender that mentions it.

Who teaches the course?

The people at B1P Group who develop and use automation on projects: automatic placement of elements along alignments, automated checking of building services models, assistants for information requirements. On the legal aspects of the AI Act, the module is built with our partner law firm, with which B1P Group has held webinars on the subject.

The course follows the same rule as our artificial intelligence for BIM service: what does not work on our models, we do not teach.

What happens in the workshop?

Each participant brings a repetitive task from their own work (filling in parameters, checking a model, reading information requirements, laying out sheets) and tackles it with the tools presented, measuring the time taken and the quality of the result; the group discusses where AI helped and where it got things wrong. In-company, the workshop is run on the client's models and produces reusable automation or checking rules.

The materials include the checking rules and the example tasks, provided under a licence.

How does it work for individuals, companies and institutions?

For individuals and design firms we run classes under the B1P Group name; dates, format and fee are agreed on request. It is an artificial intelligence course designed for people who work on models, not for programmers.

The training provider adds the module to its catalogue under its own name, from a half-day seminar to a two-day course; B1P Group provides the programme, trainers, materials, registers and certificates of attendance. For professional bodies, the seminar on the AI Act and AI in BIM is the most requested format in 2026, with CPD credits.

For companies the course is often combined with internal rules for the use of AI and a pilot automation project, as part of the AI for BIM service.

Formats

Which format for which audience?

The three course formats and the audience each one is designed for.

Format	Duration	Who it is for	What you take away
Seminar	Half a day	Professional bodies, technical management, contracting authorities	What AI does on models, what the AI Act requires, a checklist
Course	One or two days	Technical teams at design firms and contractors, training providers	A working method with the tools, exercises, a template internal policy
In-company workshop	One or more days on the client's models	Modelling and coordination teams	Reusable automation or checking rules, measurement of the savings

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about the AI in BIM course

Do I need to know how to program?

No. The course teaches you to use tools and assistants and to write rules; developing tailored automation is a service, and for those who want to learn there is an advanced module with scripting basics for Revit.

Which AI tools do you use?

The ones in use on our projects: language assistants in environments that do not train on the data, model checking tools, automation developed at B1P Group. The course explains how to evaluate tools; it does not promote any one of them.

Does the course count towards AI Act compliance?

Training the people who use AI is one of the obligations; the course documents it with a programme, registers and certificates of attendance. The other obligations (internal policy, transparency, data) are explained in the course and are implemented through the service.

Can it be run as a seminar for a professional body?

Yes, it is the most requested format: half a day, with CPD credits through the professional body and the body's name on the materials.
