ZIGURAT Institute of Technology has led a three-day workshop at the Technical University of Construction Bucharest focusing on the theoretical and practical aspects of BIM.
The workshop, which was organised in collaboration with the Technology Enabled Construction – Innovation Cluster, represents a significant stride towards advancing BIM education, the institute said.
The event was hosted in a hybrid format, enabling directors, professors and ZIGURAT alumni to engage both virtually and face-to-face. A series of lectures, rich in content and discussion, examined the cutting-edge technology pivotal to BIM and discussed methodologies for its effective implementation in current construction processes.
A focus on BIM skills
The workshop highlighted the crucial “soft skills” and “hard skills” needed in the modern construction industry, underlining the importance of technology in driving efficiency and innovation. The sessions aimed not only at imparting knowledge but also at fostering a collaborative environment where theoretical insights could be translated into practical outcomes.
Monalisa Martins, institutional development manager at ZIGURAT, said: “These three days have been a great exchange of experiences. It was amazing to bring ZIGURAT’s expertise to Bucharest and to receive such a positive response, both culturally and technically speaking. I am confident that this collaboration does not end here.”
The event not only showcased ZIGURAT’s commitment to promoting educational initiatives internationally but also marked a pivotal moment for local educational frameworks to integrate more deeply with global technological advancements in construction.
The success of the workshop promises more collaborative ventures in the future, aiming to nurture the skills necessary for the evolving demands of the construction industry.
