Ryan Phillips
After a long hiatus from the Archicad BIM world, I was able to jog my memory and relearn some basic fundamentals through this course. I found the instructor to be easy to listen to and follow along with during the sessions.
Mike Hreczkosiej
I had no problems. I simply reserve that 5 start rating for rare instances.
Adriana
I really enjoyed the detailed descriptions for a brand new Archicad user like me. The Custom roof section taught me and my team some easy shortcuts that will improve our efficiency.
Nicole Trautman
Significant menu changes from this version to current 26, causing lots of wasted time trying to 'make things work' that won't align with the video.
Ryan Senores
Loved the content of the course. Maybe I just missed it or something, but I don't think that it was mentioned at the beginning of the course that our output from one video needed to be carried to the next? Had to redo my project file over again from scratch since I hadn't saved a project file after leaving off on like the fourth or fifth video. But aside from that, the content itself was great.
Lori Bozievich
I had a couple areas that I struggled with because I am on a newer version. Fundamentals Part B - Copy Element Info into objects library did not work as show at 8m30s 13m14s Edge Visibility did not have same options as in video. Instructor was good.

Annabelle Malamug
a little more fast paced than I realized, but easy to follow
Brian Williams
There was a good balance of feeding just the right amount of information and not overloading the participant with too much information all at once.
Richard Warren
however long, this lesson was a great crash course of all the essential tools and tricks for beginner users of archicad. as someone who began learning yesterday I already feel comfortable to build a structure of my own design.
Roland McGee
I did not like that she kept repeating steps in the videos since I could rewatch it if I missed a step. The woman in the video also changed up her mind constantly and it made the course harder to follow along.
This course should be first for modelers/drafters when companies start using Archicad. I got a better understanding here than Drafting Basics (which was also a good course).
