Winchester, MA - CDV Systems, providers of Autodesk Revit and CodeBook courseware, training, implementation and consulting services, announces that its latest book in its line of courseware publications for AutoDesk Revit, "Introductory Courseware for Autodesk Revit 6.1 - All Building Types" is available immediately. The book highlights some of the new and improved features of Autodesk Revit version 6.1 including Import/Export/Link, View Control, Plotting and Dimensioning. The latest in a line of successful Revit Courseware, this book is now available at the CDV Systems website www.cdvsystems.com

CDV Systems Courseware was mentioned several times during a recent Autodesk Webinar, featuring Autodesk Revit Success Story - Donald Powers Architects - Providence, RI. Powers sought out CDV Systems for Training, Courseware, Implementation and Technical Support for Autodesk Revit. Donald Powers explained, "A large part of our Revit success is due to having CDV Systems courseware as a reference for specific tasks. CDV Systems 'process-based training' Revit manuals were set up in exactly the sequence by which we work, and focused carefully on the end result - a set of workable documents by which to design, present and construct a project. It is sitting on my desk bristling with yellow post-its and in the first month I referred to it all the time."

Dan Stonecipher, Job Captain/CAD Manager at The H.L. Turner Group in Manchester, NH shares Powers' opinion of the CDV Systems Courseware Series. He states, "This course starts from the beginning and continues throughout using real example models so as to allow the user to fully understand the potential that Revit has to produce coordinated documents, as well as other necessary program and graphics requirements. I would recommend CDV Systems courseware to anyone interested in utilizing Revit."

Cyril Verley, President of CDV Systems, Inc. responds by saying, "We are greatly satisfied to learn from both our national and international clients that the CDV Systems Courseware has played an integral part in their successful implementation of Autodesk Revit. Additionally, we are equally excited that our courseware is presently being adopted by many colleges and universities across the United States as the textbook of choice for their Revit curriculum."

Whether you are a CAD novice or an experienced AutoCAD user, CDV Systems Introductory Courseware for Autodesk Revit 6.1 is the starting point for embarking on the Revit learning curve. This book lays the foundation for working in the Revit Building Information Model (BIM). Step-by-step, the exercises not only build a simple building from start to finish, but also focus on the controls, means and methods the design professional will use in any Revit project. Once completed, the design professional will have used all the typical commands used in the day-to-day production environment. The exercises in this book prepare the user for the exercises in the advanced courseware books which complete the coverage of Autodesk Revit, using either a commercial or a residential building type. "Advanced Courseware for Autodesk Revit 6.1 - Residential" will be off-press in September 2004 and "Advanced Courseware for Autodesk Revit 6.1 - Commercial" book is slated for November 2004.
