Course Duration: Option 1: 10 days – 10 hours or Option 2: 4 half days – 12 hours
Option 1: 10 days – 10 hours
The course will give the trainee the skills and knowledge to start creating their own visual programming scripts through Dynamo, how to create elements, place families, import info from excel, export data into Excel, set parameter values, create geometry, how to use Dynamo Player and more. All the exercises used during the course are applicable to your own projects, so you will have around 20 scripts ready to use at the end of the course.
Recommended experience level: No previous experience in Dynamo required, but being proficient with Revit is highly recommended.
