Here, BSI\u2019s new Head of Training, Laura Melvin, shares her thoughts with BIM Today about the importance of the correct training<\/h2>\n<p>In our 10 minute interview with Laura Melvin, the new Head of Training at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/bim-news\/bsi-kitemark-deliver-successful-projects\/29327\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BSI<\/a>, she outlines what she considers to be the top considerations for organisations in the built environment sector and what her plans are for 2017. She also shares her thoughts on BIM training for professionals, what BIM means, and where BSI can offer guidance.<\/p>\n<h3>Laura, what has been your highlight so far at BSI?<\/h3>\n<p>The people \u2013 everyone is so passionate about their job and have made me feel really welcome. I feel like I\u2019ve worked here for years already.<\/p>\n<h3>How did you start out in the built environment industry?<\/h3>\n<p>I\u2019ve been in the built environment industry for about thirteen years now \u2013 previously at BRE and before that, IES Ltd. My background is in business management. However, I\u2019m really passionate about the built environment \u2013 particularly BIM (Building Information Modelling). There\u2019s a bit of a misconception that BIM is all about software and it\u2019s very technical, but for me, it\u2019s about collaboration and working with people, which is what I thrive on.<\/p>\n<h3>What do you think is the biggest driver for organisations in the built environment industry at the moment?<\/h3>\n<p>Well, BIM is of course very topical at the moment with the government mandate for organisations to be able to demonstrate their BIM capability to be considered for publicly procured projects. That said, private projects\/clients are now asking for BIM Level 2, as they see the efficiencies that can be made.<\/p>\n<h3>How is BSI supporting organisations and what BIM training for professionals is on offer?<\/h3>\n<p>From a training perspective, there\u2019s still a lot of education needed, and that\u2019s where BSI comes in \u2013 it\u2019s our job to demystify any misconceptions. We\u2019re seeing more and more organisations come to us for training; some are just starting out on their journey, and others are further along. We deliver solutions that cater for all levels of competency, for those organisations that are just starting out, there\u2019s BIM fundamentals training where we\u2019ll support individuals to achieve a basic knowledge level of BIM Level 2. For those further along in their journey, there are training solutions designed to help with BIM implementation which for many organisations can be their biggest challenge.<\/p>\n<p>Education is key, however going beyond training \u2013 BSI offers BIM Verification and Kitemark\u2122 solutions to demonstrate organisational BIM capabilities, giving our customers a competitive advantage. BSI is delighted to now be offering a remote gap analysis service, which will assess where organisations are in their BIM journey if they are considering a Verification or Kitemark solution.<\/p>\n<h3>What do you think are the biggest challenges around BIM?<\/h3>\n<p>I think one of the most important challenges is getting buy-in throughout the organisation, both from a strategic and operational perspective. I don\u2019t see BIM as a mere process, it\u2019s an enabler for more efficient working and should be looked at from a companywide perspective. For many, it has evolved into a culture change project. We often hear that an individual has been told to drive this change or to drive BIM without an appreciation for the support required from the rest of the business. We always look at it from an organisation- wide perspective and ask, \u2018how can we help your entire business to get up to speed?\u2019<\/p>\n<h3>Where do you think organisations are on their BIM journey?<\/h3>\n<p>There\u2019s still a way to go \u2013 certainly, lots of key influencers and Tier 1 contractors are leading the way \u2013 we\u2019ve already verified and awarded the BSI Kitemark for BIM to several organisations. However, there are still a number of Tier 2 organisations (and in fact Tier 1 organisations) that need to get on board. As it\u2019s such a traditional industry, that has previously been dependent on paper-based working, it requires a complete culture shift to embrace this digital era. However, if organisations fail to get on board, they could lose out on projects. Embracing BIM is a great opportunity for businesses to build additional resilience and prepare for the future.<\/p>\n<h3>Do you have a career highlight so far?<\/h3>\n<p>I\u2019m incredibly proud of what I\u2019ve achieved so far in my career \u2013 and at my age. I\u2019ve managed a global training business, developed new market-leading products, and even managed to achieve my OU degree while travelling around Europe.<\/p>\n<p>Any advice for other women considering a career in the built environment?<\/p>\n<p>Work hard! And be creative \u2013 don\u2019t follow the crowd, be a leader. Think about how you can implement change and be ambitious and entrepreneurial.<\/p>\n<h3>What are you looking forward to most at BSI?<\/h3>\n<p>The BSI training academy is already highly successful, and I\u2019m looking forward to taking it to the next level by working with the team by applying my knowledge and expertise and being creative. We have a really passionate team, and that will only help us to become even more resilient.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-32876 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Laura-Melvin-571x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"269\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Laura-Melvin-571x1024.jpg 571w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Laura-Melvin-167x300.jpg 167w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Laura-Melvin-100x179.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Laura-Melvin-234x420.jpg 234w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Laura-Melvin.jpg 669w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/>Laura Melvin<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Head of Training<\/p>\n<p>BSI Group<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bsigroup.com\/bim-uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.bsigroup.com\/bim-uk<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/BSI_UK\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@BSI_UK<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BIM training for professionals is essential to support organisations in their BIM journey.
