Course Overview

The Autodesk Navisworks Essentials course, offered by Autodesk, is designed for construction professionals, BIM coordinators, and project managers seeking to master model review and project coordination within a Building Information Modeling (BIM) workflow. This training prepares candidates for the Autodesk Certified Professional (ACP) in Navisworks certification exam, a credential recognized across the architecture, engineering, and construction industries. With over 78% of large construction firms now using Navisworks for clash detection and 4D simulation according to industry adoption reports, proficiency in this platform has become essential for roles focused on reducing rework, improving collaboration, and ensuring project accuracy from design through execution.

Students gain hands-on experience with core components of Autodesk Navisworks Manage, including Clash Detective, TimeLiner, Animator, Scripter, Quantification, and Autodesk Rendering tools. Through guided lab exercises in the Navisworks desktop environment, learners combine multidisciplinary models from Revit, AutoCAD, and other formats into a unified federated model, perform interference checks, and create construction simulations linked to project schedules. A key real-world project involves running a comprehensive clash detection test across architectural, structural, and MEP models, resolving conflicts, and generating detailed reports to communicate issues to stakeholders, simulating actual coordination workflows used on major infrastructure and commercial builds.

This course directly supports preparation for the Autodesk Certified Professional certification, a credential that validates expertise in model aggregation, clash resolution, and 4D scheduling—skills in high demand across global AEC firms. Professionals with Navisworks expertise command competitive salaries, with BIM Managers earning between $74,000 and $128,000 annually in the U.S., according to Payscale data from 2026. At Koenig Solutions, learners benefit from Guaranteed-to-Run schedules, official Autodesk courseware, and instructor-led practice with real-world datasets, ensuring mastery of both exam objectives and on-the-job applications. Upon completion, students are positioned to lead BIM coordination efforts, drive efficiency in project delivery, and advance into senior roles such as BIM Manager or Digital Construction Lead.
