What does an Autodesk Revit Instructor do?

An Autodesk Revit Instructor is responsible for teaching students or professionals how to use Revit, a popular Building Information Modeling (BIM) software used in architecture, engineering, and construction. They create lesson plans, deliver lectures, provide hands-on training, and assess students' progress. Instructors may teach in classroom settings, online courses, or corporate training environments, and often tailor their instruction to different skill levels, from beginners to advanced users.

What are some common challenges Autodesk Revit Instructors face when teaching beginners, and how can these be addressed?

One common challenge Autodesk Revit Instructors encounter is helping beginners overcome the steep learning curve associated with the software's interface and complex functionalities. Many new users may feel overwhelmed by the variety of tools and workflows. Instructors can address this by breaking lessons into manageable modules, providing hands-on exercises, and encouraging questions. Additionally, fostering a collaborative classroom environment where students can share their screens and troubleshoot together helps reinforce learning and build confidence.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an Autodesk Revit Instructor, and why are they important?

To thrive as an Autodesk Revit Instructor, you need expert knowledge of Revit software, architectural design principles, and a background in architecture, engineering, or related fields, often supported by certifications like Autodesk Certified Professional. Mastery of the latest Revit versions, Building Information Modeling (BIM) standards, and familiarity with related tools such as AutoCAD or Navisworks is typically required. Strong communication, patience, and the ability to explain complex concepts clearly are critical soft skills for effective teaching. These skills ensure instructors can deliver high-quality training, meet learner needs, and keep pace with evolving industry standards.

While both roles require Revit knowledge, Autodesk Revit Instructors focus on teaching and training users, often working in educational settings. Autodesk Revit Designers primarily use Revit for creating models and design work within architectural or engineering firms. The main difference lies in their responsibilities: instructors educate others, whereas designers apply Revit skills to project development.

Job description

Company Description

Ledet Training has been an Adobe, Apple and Autodesk authorized instructor-led training company for over 15 years. The company operates bricks and mortar facilities in Atlanta, Chicago, Denver,  San Diego and Washington DC. We also deliver classes online in virtual classrooms and onsite at customer locations so we are looking for trainers throughout the US.

Job Description

Trainers are sought for all Autodesk products. We have an immediate need for AutoCAD and Revit trainers.

This is a contract 1099 opportunity ideal for self-employed, independent contracting professionals seeking to supplement their business income with fairly regular opportunities to deliver classroom based instruction. We also work with employed individuals who have a flexible enough schedule to be able to occasionally teach a 2 to 5 day class, however.

Classes are typically 2 to 5 days long. Class times are 9:00 to 4:00 with a one hour lunch break. Instructors are expected to arrive by 8:00 and be prepared to stay up to an hour later, if necessary, to answer customer questions or assist them with any challenges. Classes are delivered during the business work week. We do not offer classes on evenings or weekends. Students are typically adult business professionals. 

Daily Rates

As independent contractors, trainers set their own pay rate. Different instructors charge different rates, but typically those contractors who set their daily rate competitive with others in the industry have more training opportunities presented to them. Their are approximately six hours of classroom delivery per day, but time must be budgeted for preparation and setup.

Qualifications
  • Significant real-world experience on AutoCAD
  • Great presentation skills.
  • Caring attitude
  • Willingness to gain certification by Autodesk as an instructor including passing relevant certification exams and attending the Autodesk instructor training class. There is no fee to Ledet Training for this, but Autodesk does charge for certification exams.
Additional Information

A great applicant for this opportunity is someone who has both the technical expertise in the technology they are teaching as well as the effective presentation skills and caring attention to their students necessary to help adults learn to use technology more effectively to achieve business results.

Instructors who get the best reviews are engaging and entertaining, carefully prepared and organized, and focus on what class participants can do, not on showing how much they know. They are open to constructive feedback and continually hone both their technical and delivery skills.
