BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING LEVEL 3 AWARD
The purpose of this qualification is to recognise learning at Level 3 that is relevant to the design, engineering and construction of buildings with a specific emphasis on environmental sustainability. It is suitable for anyone that is interested in working in the construction industry but especially those that want to get a taste of work in professions such as architecture, surveying, civil engineering and facilities management. Even for those not going into employment in the construction industry, the qualification will provide an insight into how their environment is constructed and the decisions that need to be taken to get a building project under way. You will need to be competent in mathematics and English at least at GCSE grade C level and in ICT user skills at Level 2 to be able to access this course. Although not essential, having the Designing, Engineering and Constructing a Sustainable Built Environment (QCF) Level 2 qualification will be a distinct advantage, as wil having achieved the award at Level 3.
