SUMMARY:Blue Beam Revu Estimating Level 1- Build Accurate Takeoffs
DESCRIPTION:Bluebeam Revu Estimating Level 1 is an intensive\, instructor-led online course offered exclusively by Curtek. Led by a Senior Estimator\, it delivers hands-on training in Revu best practices through interactive exercises\, real-time feedback\, and quizzes. Participants follow a structured\, progressive curriculum and receive practice files and a reference workbook for ongoing use.\nIntended Audience: Construction supervisors\, project managers\, estimators\, engineers\, and design professionals looking to work smarter and faster in a digital environment. \nModules Include: \n\n\n\nTakeoff Profile and Tool Sets\nLayers\nSetting the scale\nViewports\nLength measurements\nArea and volume measurements\nDynamic Fill\nCount measurements\nSearch\nTracking Takeoffs\nLegends\nSketch to scale1\n\n\n\n1 Gold Seal Credit \nPrerequisite: This is NOT a beginner course. You are expected to know what is taught in the Basics course before taking this course. Visit https://www.curtek.ca/revu-basics-knowlege-test to test your knowledge on the basics. \n\nView Full Course Outline (PDF) \n\n \nRegister Here\n \n\nTHE VENUE\nThe training will be held in an online Zoom meeting. Details will be provided 48 hours before the first session. \n\nCost $349.00 + tax through Curtek\nCourse payment will be reimbursed upon successful completion.\n\nRecommended Computer Setup\nYou will need TWO screens for the training to be effective. \n\n\n\n\n\nThe first screen needs to be a Windows computer with Bluebeam Revu 2020 installed.\nThe second screen is to display the Zoom meeting. This could be a second monitor\, a larger tablet (9″ +) or a smart phone displayed on to a TV.\n\n\n\n\n\nBluebeam Revu Requirements\nYou will need a fully functioning version of Bluebeam Revu 2020. Any Windows version is ok (Standard\, CAD\, or eXtreme). The Mac version will not work. If you have an older version\, you can download a 2020 trial and install it ‘side by side’ your existing install. This will allow you to continue to use your older version without losing your license and you can use the new version to follow along in the training. \nYou can download a free 30-day trial here: https://www.curtek.ca/bluebeam-trial

SUMMARY:Canadian Industrial Cables Made Simple
DESCRIPTION:Ditch the confusion\, nail your specs\, and pass inspection with confidence—because one wrong cable choice can cost you delays\, rework\, and your reputation. \n\nYou have been there. A dense spec sheet. A tight deadline. One wrong cable choice means rework\, delays\, and a hit to your reputation that takes years to rebuild. \nThis is the session that changes that. Led by two industry experts from Nexans Canada\, this virtual session combines foundational knowledge with practical insights that you can apply directly to your next industrial project. No unnecessary theory. Just straight talk from engineers who design and apply these systems every day. \nWhat makes this different? This is not a generic overview. You are learning directly from the people who build and specify these systems: an engineer who knows the code and the products inside out\, and a product leader who understands where the industry is headed. Together\, they will walk you through the critical details that most training misses: what actually matters on a spec sheet\, where contractors commonly make costly errors\, and how to interpret the code with confidence. \nThe stakes are real. Codes evolve. Cable technologies advance. And the contractors who understand these systems win more bids\, avoid costly rework\, and deliver projects that pass inspection the first time. \nThis is your opportunity to get ahead. Before your next bid. Before your next inspection. \n\nYou will learn how to: \n\nDecode a cable specification sheet and identify the exact product for your application—so you stop guessing and start specifying with confidence\, saving hours of research time and avoiding expensive specification errors.\nDistinguish between armored and unarmoured cable applications by understanding real installation scenarios where choosing the wrong cable means failed inspections or compromised safety—and learn the code requirements that protect you.\nInterpret key electrical code requirements as they apply to industrial cable systems\, including voltage ratings\, flame spread\, hazardous location classifications\, and low smoke zero halogen requirements—so you can walk onto any job site knowing you have met compliance standards.\nApply best-practice installation techniques that prevent common field failures\, including proper shield bonding methods and handling requirements—saving your crew from rework and your project from delay.\nWalk through what to expect during a verification and an integrated systems test—so when the inspector arrives\, you are prepared\, not panicked.\n\n\n👥 Ideal Audience: Electrical contractors\, project managers\, site supervisors\, estimators\, and anyone specifying or installing industrial power cables. This session is designed for professionals with some field experience who want to deepen their technical knowledge and stay current with evolving standards. \n Date: September 23\, 2026 | 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM EST \nRegister Here
