Bluebeam Revu Training, Baseline Basics, In-Person Foundations for Estimators
Held the evening before the ASPE Estimating Academy, this in-person Bluebeam Revu training is designed for professionals who want a clear, confident foundation before diving into deeper estimating concepts. Whether you’re opening Bluebeam for the first time or you’ve been self-taught over the years, this session ensures everyone starts from the same strong baseline.
This 2.5-hour, instructor-led class focuses on helping participants truly understand how Bluebeam works, not just where to click. You’ll learn how to navigate the interface, understand key settings, and use core markup and measurement tools effectively, with hands-on guidance throughout the session. In-person instruction allows for real-time questions, personalized explanations, and immediate feedback, something that’s difficult to replicate through videos or self-paced courses.
Many professionals have learned Bluebeam on their own, picking up tips along the way, but never receiving formal instruction. This class fills that gap. The focus is on building confidence, improving accuracy, and helping users work faster by understanding the tools they already have access to. You’ll also be introduced to the Markups List and how it fits into a clean, organized workflow.
This session is especially valuable for attendees planning to participate in the ASPE Estimating Academy. By building a strong Bluebeam foundation the night before, participants are better prepared to follow along, recognize opportunities, and get more value from the estimating-focused presentations that follow.
If you’ve been looking for in-person Bluebeam training but haven’t been able to find an experienced instructor, this is a rare opportunity to learn in a focused, small-group environment and walk into the Estimating Academy better prepared and more confident.
