The Bluebeam Academic Program is committed to fostering community through education by bridging the gap between the classroom and the field. That’s why we partner with schools, skilled trade training programs and industry-sponsored student competitions to provide free access to Bluebeam Revu for students and educators.
As an industry-standard tool used by millions worldwide, Revu is currently taught in hundreds of colleges around the world, including Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, Purdue University and the Technical University of Denmark.
Utilizing Revu in the classroom will help you and your students:
Get up to speed with the latest digital construction technology
Communicate and collaborate on projects
Prepare their transition to the field
