Featured at Select Bentley World Tour Cities and

Bentley Systems Bentley Systems, Incorporated, provides software for the "Design, construction and operation of the world's infrastructure". The company’s software serves the building, plant, civil, and geospatial vertical markets in the areas of architecture, engineering, construction (AEC) , Incorporated today announced that the American Institute of Architects The American Institute of Architects (AIA) is a professional organization for architects in the United States. Organized in 1857, the Institute conducts various activities and programs to support the profession and enhance its public image, including periodically awarding the AIA  (AIA AIA - Application Integration Architecture ) has registered the company's Building Information Modeling (BIM BIM Building Information Modeling

) seminars. AIA members are eligible to earn two AIA/CES Learning Units when they attend any Bentley BIM seminar.

Seminars are being held at select Bentley World Tour locations and will be featured during the Bentley International User Conference in May. Other locations and times are also available.

Each seminar covers how BIM addresses both graphical and non-graphical information essential to the design, construction, and operation of a building. BIM addresses all five levels of user needs: creating/accessing/analyzing building information, sharing that information with others, ensuring that information is synchronized among participants, enabling everyone in the building lifecycle to work on the information in their professional context, and keeping all building information and the inherent intellectual property secure.

Bentley supports this hierarchy of needs in a BIM strategy through 20 enabling technologies that are already available in MicroStation (R)and its collaboration servers. These technologies enable users to achieve a managed environment for building projects and operations. Bentley offers a unique ramp to BIM so users can realize BIM via evolution rather than revolution.

Visiting more than 70 cities, the V8 Generation World Tour has already made more than 40 stops and attracted more than 4,000 attendees. Looking ahead, BIM seminars will be hosted in the following cities in connection with Bentley World Tour events:
