Today, NBS, the leading construction data platform, has announced its brand new NBS Academy – a new home for industry training courses and content for customers.

The new training Academy is here to support the specifier's personal and professional development. The Academy’s dedicated trainers will help make the most of the NBS's platforms, helping its customers work smarter and more efficiently.

It offers a variety of training options across a broad range of topics so its customers can learn in a way that suits their availability, learning preferences and budget. For instance, there is a free ‘Welcome to Chorus’ session for customers new to the platform, along with courses covering how to create projects, editing Uniclass 2015 and CAWS work sections, and using collaborative features.

Completing an NBS Academy training course will offer the delegates and their practices the skills to use the NBS platform more confidently. The courses will enable them to make the best use of their time when creating and collaborating on specifications – preserving billable hours rather than eating into them.

NBS is part of the RIBA CPD Providers Network and all training courses are reviewed and accredited by the RIBA. Customers can claim double points for attending, contributing significantly towards that all-important target. All delegates will receive a certificate as proof of their attendance.

NBS is committed to providing its customers with the tools and resources needed to build a better and more sustainable future. NBS has a long track record in providing essential resources for the construction industry, and in recent years has transformed into a leading cloud-based platform.

Tim Bellhouse, Head of Customer Support of NBS, commented; “NBS is proud to have a highly experienced and dedicated training team who deliver our courses all over the UK and beyond.

Our professional yet friendly approach encourages engagement, so our customers get the very best out of these learning sessions. Whether it’s by webinar, online or in person, our trainers are committed to creating a learning environment that benefits you, so you can get the most out of the course and leave being able to use the platform confidently.”

Previously, NBS training courses have had over 2,000 reviews on their website, with a 4.5 star average rating. The training team helped Hollis, an international, independent real estate consultancy to accelerate their transition from NBS Create to NBS Chorus, which has led to an instant impact on the level of efficiency in Hollis’ projects.

Speaking about the support they’ve received from the NBS training team, Carl Sablon, Senior Associate of Hollis said: “The NBS trainers made the session really enjoyable, and their technical knowledge was incredible. It was a one-day session with one trainer taking us through the morning and another in the afternoon. The day covered everything our team might need to know, and the NBS support team is always there if we have any queries.”
