Thirty-four construction professionals received a first-ever new national accreditation in the use of Building Information Modeling (BIM), a process that relies on computer-generated models to better manage construction projects. The professional accreditation, which is being offered by AGC, is the first assessment-based credential to recognize construction professionals on their ability to use the process.
Nearly three dozen construction professionals nationwide tested successfully to receive the new professional accreditation, the Certificate of Management-Building Information Modeling (CM-BIM). Candidates first had to complete the BIM Education Program, a series of four courses AGC developed to help construction professionals learn how to use the construction process. To date, more than 3,800 professionals across the country have entered AGC’s BIM education program.
