Who is the Coach?

Coach BIM
Mario Baeza Gaitero – I am a BIM Coordinator working with FCC Construction into the A9 expansion project in Amsterdam. Previously I’ve been working in Dublin in a Data Center project and also in Norfolk, US, into a big project as well highway expansion including tunnel and new lanes road.
 
I’ve been involved into Revit for a long time and my passion for teaching make me make these courses for all those who want to start or to improve their skill into the modelling field based on Construction, Engineering and M.E.P. fields.
The last 5 years I’ve been working as Freelance for the Spanish Government, teaching unemployed people or workers who want to improve their knowledge. The experience was great with these online courses and that why I would like to start in Amsterdam the same courses, so the people could learn from scratch or just to improve.
