IfcLab EGNATON Education Workshop 2025
Our ticket shop is now open:
Frankfurt/Main, December 1/2, 2025
Content
This workshop is a compressed 2-day fundamentals crash course to get to know IFC and the native IFC editor BonsaiBIM better. It covers the most important concepts of IFC. The second day will be used to introduce the IFC native authoring tool BonsaiBIM. BonsaiBIM is a free and open source software (FOSS) and will therefore not cause any additional cost.
It is important to understand how IFC works and interacts with real project data and information models. The learning curve will be enhanced by deep and active exercise learning. A persistent Common Data Environment (CDE) will be provided and will make additional information available to the participants.
Breaks will be planned according to the suitability of the participants.
The number of participants will be restricted to 10 people to guarantee optimal learning and support efficiency!
CAUTION: Participants will need to use a 3-button mouse with scroll wheel!
