Why you should study this course

If you’re curious about the UK construction industry, or would like to expand your skillset, this module could be the start of your journey.

 

Our Building Information Modelling and its Digital Application module is an ideal introduction to building information modelling (BIM) and the digital applications that shape and feed that process.

 

The continuing growth of the construction industry in order to meet local and global demand, has resulted in additional requirements for higher-qualified personnel who can deliver sustainable projects in the most cost-effective way.

 

The growing construction skills shortage is a problem for the sector and its suppliers and according to the Construction Skills Network (CSN), the UK needs 217,000 extra construction workers by 2025 to fill gaps in the industry. A considerable demand among these numbers is for Construction Managers with BIM expertise in the wider construction industry.

 

Due to its digital focus, this Building Information Modelling and its Digital Applications module (HTQ) Level 4 is recognised by higher education providers as meeting admission requirements to many computing-related courses.
