How you'll learn
Training is 100% online on the SEIUM campus, with downloadable material, recorded classes and a dedicated technical tutor. There are no fixed timetables: students progress at their own pace within the intake, making it possible to combine with work.
Each module combines theory, guided reading of the original standard and applied exercises. The working software is Bentley iTwin (digital twin), ArcGIS, Verisk Touchstone, Power BI, in free, academic or evaluation versions. The exercises are based on real inspection procedures for connected infrastructure risks, dependency and continuity analysis, and review of concession contracts. Assessment is continuous per module plus the final integrating project.
