Taking digital construction to the next level
Overview
Duration
1 day of 6 learning hours
Duration for any e-learning to be at least 50% of this
Purpose/scope
The purpose of this standard is to provide the delegate with the knowledge to support the following:
Build on the learning from the “Getting Started with Digital Construction” module. This course considers digital tools in a bit more depth
Scope:

- the relationship between Building Information Modelling (BIM), the Common Data Environment (CDE), digital solutions and digitalisation
- the key legal factors within an organisation that need to be considered when selecting digital solutions
- the benefits of Building Information Modelling (BIM)
- the factors which need to be considered when making a business case for a digital solution
- the key factors to consider when implementing a digital strategy
- the behaviours and attitudes within an organisation that can affect the successful implementation of a digital solution
- the sources of funding and tax relief available to assist with digital adoption
- the relationship between existing company culture and behavioural change
- possible digital solutions relating them to delegate’s business goals
- the elements of a strong business case required for implementing a specific digital solution
- the steps that need to be taken in order to put the right digital competencies in place within their company
- organisational structures that can inhibit or support digitalisation, cultural and behavioural change

This standard is considered to contain 51% or more theoretical learning
This standard is considered to be set at basic level
Assessment
Methods of assessment considered appropriate for training delivered against this standard are:
For the successful completion of training, the trainer must be satisfied that the delegate has achieved all learning outcomes
Quality assurance
Assured
Quality assurance against this standard will require initial approval of the training organisation and their content mapped to the standard.
CITB will also conduct an approval intervention, either desk-based or centre visit, to ensure the training organisation can meet the requirements of the training standard.
Approved training organisations (ATOs) will be required to present information on records of training and assessment upon request to CITB for desk-based analysis. They will also be visited annually by the CITB quality assurance team.
