Winchester, MA - CDV Systems, providers of Autodesk Revit and CodeBook courseware, training, implementation and consulting services, is poised to release its latest books in its line of courseware publications for AutoDesk Revit 6.1. The books titled "Introductory Courseware for Autodesk Revit 6.1 - All Building Types" and "Advanced Courseware for Autodesk Revit 6.1 - Residential" highlight some of the new features of version 6.1: structural enhancements, curved ramps, design option improvements and import/export/link improvements, roof and worksets improvements. The latest in a line of successful Revit Courseware Guides, the books will be available at Amazon.com and the CDV Systems website (www.cdvsystems.com) in August, 2004.

Cyril Verley, President of CDV Systems, Inc. recently stated, "We are extremely gratified that the industry has had such a positive response to CDV Systems Courseware for Autodesk Revit." Jill Rothenberg, Principal/CIO from ADD, Inc. in Cambridge, MA describes the courseware by stating, "The organization is structured in such a way that helps the users build their knowledge so that they are able to use the software initially for simple tasks then learn more complex functionality after they have grasped the basics."

Additionally, Kevin Busacker, CAD Coordinator at LEO A. DALY headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska has recommended this training method to others and adds that, "Process-based training is definitely the way Revit should be taught."

When asked about the effectiveness of these process-based training materials, Dan Stonecipher, CAD Manager of The H.L. Turner Group in Manchester, NH responded, "Process-based training is the only way to train for this material. In order to perform the functions, you must understand the process. Cyril obviously has a deep understanding of the software, and the processes to which it will be applied. His experience as a registered Architect working in the business has allowed him to understand and address the issues that we face on a day to day basis, and manipulate the software to perform the relative functions."

Noelker and Hull Associates, of Chambersburg, PA recently hired CDV Systems for advanced commercial training with Autodesk Revit 6.1. "Excellent - Cyril's depth of knowledge about the software is tremendous and is in itself priceless. Adding in Cyril's ability to answer any and all questions with great patience creates a tremendous teaching tool. He seemed to easily change the path of his coursework procedure to accommodate our shortcomings in experience," noted Michael Hudson, Project Manager for Noelker and Hull Associates. Valerie Harshman, Sr. Interior Designer for Noelker and Hull Associates noted, "The class was well-planned and cohesive. I felt as if I was taking a class at a University with a Professor. I also appreciated that the courseware was designed around the true methodologies of construction documentation and the stages that an Architectural firm would follow."
