A key aspect of building information modeling (BIM) is that it is intended to be a collaborative tool for all practitioners. Ironically, there is a little to no collaboration among academics and professionals teaching and training those pursuing careers in BIM. This Guide to the Building Information Modeling Body of Knowledge: BIM BOK Guide is a BIM implementation guide that provides a systematic framework to address cutting edge BIM use cases and KSAs expected for students and professionals entering the BIM workforce. Curriculum and training program development can be organized based on the core BIM competencies detailed in the robust framework of the BIM BOK. Written by an author team of globally respected experts in the field, this BIM BOK Guide cultivates a global BIM culture by delivering a solid foundation and guidelines for starting or enhancing a BIM curriculum or training program, establishing comprehensive BIM metrics and KSAs, and offering strategies for standardizing emerging BIM jobs and benchmarking performance.
