Starting with a small founding cohort. If you're interested in the Practitioner certification, DM me and I'll add you to the waitlist. You'll be the first to know when pre-registration opens.

Only 326 people worldwide have taken the Practitioner exam. Why so few? It has only been available in German and Italian. My goal is to be among the first to offer this training online, in English.

I'm very proud to share this. BIMvoice is now a buildingSMART Registered Training Provider for the openBIM Foundation certification. I can deliver official training and administer the exam through the buildingSMART Qualification Platform. Online. In English.

Classifications are not properties. They have their own place in IFC. Use it. What's stopping you from using IfcClassificationReference?

→ It's standardized → It supports multiple classification systems on one element → It includes source, edition, and hierarchy → Software knows exactly where to look

Why do people keep putting classification codes in property sets? There's literally a dedicated structure for this in IFC. IfcClassificationReference. It exists. It works. It's been there for years. 🧵

And if you've been thinking about submitting a talk, the call for papers closes soon: www-eur.cvent.com/c/abstracts/cf…

I'll be at the buildingSMART Summit in Porto this March. First time in Porto. Looking forward to the hallway chats and coffee break conversations. If you're going, let me know. Would love to meet.

Going live today with Louis Trümpler. openBIM building permits in Switzerland. Automated site models from open APIs. No manual modeling. 📅 Today 🕚 11:00 AM CET / 10:00 AM GMT Join us: lnkd.in/gSTJHgNE

If this sounds like you, send me a message. And if you know someone in BIM who is good at what they do but clearly undervalued, feel free to connect us.

This is a short research call. No selling. No pitch. Just an honest conversation about where you are right now. I'll also share a few practical tips based on what I've seen work for others in similar situations.

Over the last years, I've had many private conversations with BIM professionals. Good people. Hard workers. People who really care about their work. Most of them were not bad at BIM. They were just stuck. 🧵
