SUMMARY:Bluebeam for Office Administrators
DESCRIPTION:Day-to-day operational work on all our documents\, markups\, and forms tends to fall squarely on the shoulders of our administrative staff. Unfortunately\, we don’t always provide them with the tools and training courses they need to get that work done effectively. Bluebeam Revu is the most used software in the design/build world and it’s not just for estimators and project managers. Office administrative staff can see just as much\, if not more\, benefit from working inside Bluebeam Revu as anyone in your company. Addressing edits and markups\, creating fillable forms\, stamping documents\, and even comparing versions are all vital tools that administrators in your firm need and this class is designed to show them how to use the same Bluebeam software you use in all other aspects of your work\, to do just that. \nZenTek Consultants\, a certified Bluebeam Partner\, will show you the most effective means of using the software you already own\, so you can get the ROI you were hoping for. This eight (8) hour Bluebeam Revu training course for office administrators is delivered in four (4)\, two-hour long sessions that students can attend online\, right from their own desk. A live instructor will explain the detailed functions\, and address questions as the class progresses. \n​​Note: Instructor will be using Bluebeam Revu Complete 21 and some tools shown may not be available in Revu Basics or Core. Looking for this class in Bluebeam Revu 2017\, 2018\, 2019\, or 20?
