Engridd - BIM Academy
Architecture, Engineering, Construction, and Operations (AECO) companies are more focused on opting new work practices based on BIM within the industry worldwide. In India, the adoption of BIM in AECO industry is spiking at a swift level while indeed fosters the need for professionals with BIM competence. The demand for professionals with expertise and professional knowledge in BIM is increasing and there are multiple reasons that support this statement. But there is a skill shortage in the market which indeed propels the need for offering standardised BIM education as a foundational activity which is a critical need for both industry and academia. BIM education is defined as a ‘process of learning that covers BIM knowledge that an individual must be capable of as well as having an understanding of BIM processes’. BIM education is a process of learning the conceptual and practical knowledge related to BIM technologies, workflows, and protocols. There are several methods to gain BIM competencies which includes:
-
Formal education focused on improving theoretical knowledge
-
Vocational or on-the-job training is typically focused on skill improvement.
-
Professional development is typically focused on improving personal traits.
BIM concepts and tools have gradually started to appear within tertiary institutions, especially in graduate level programs but it only includes some theoretical topics that won't suffice the growing demand for a BIM-competent workforce. With the ongoing demand now the focus is on developing industry ready graduates who have worked on hands-on, collaborative, and multidisciplinary project work. To bridge this academic and professional gap, Engridd BIM Academy is formed where we work with both students and professionals to refine them into BIM-ready graduates. The name Engridd comes from ‘Engineering the Grid’, a grid where engineers are industry-ready, organisations are execution-ready, systems are performance-ready, and BIM projects move seamlessly from intent to impact. We have a mission to building professionals, a scalable grid that empowers engineers and architects, strengthens organisations, and enables BIM delivery through practical skilling, reliable resourcing, high-performance infrastructure, and outcome-driven consulting.
So how are we different from others? We work with students as well as hiring organizations who can filter the talent from our portal. We have a single ecosystem with different nodes which includes Skilling, Resourcing, Consulting, Marketplace, BIMStations. Our program has different levels both offline and online including:
