Our Educational Program is completely free for universities as part of our commitment to educational institutions in equipping students with world-leading technology.
We offer a stress-free campus license liaison process. No contracts, no commitments! You won’t be required to upgrade to a paid product and renewal of the Licenses is also free.
With our various licensing configurations, whether you’re looking to deploy RIB CostX® for a single computer lab or throughout your entire institute, we have a setup which will work perfectly for you.
RIB CostX® is already taught in universities and tertiary institutes all around the world in countries such as the USA, Australia, New Zealand, UK, India, South Africa, Hong Kong and many others. As digital technologies are becoming a necessity, it is imperative to educate students with prevailing methods and techniques.
RIB CostX® is compatible with most major industry recognised files, including DWFTM, DWFx, RVT, IFC, SKP, DWGTM (2D CAD), PDFs, JPEG, BMP, TIFF etc.
Academic staff are provided with free training materials that come with various practical exercises plus drawing files. These can then be repurposed for their teaching. The training materials are updated accordingly with each release of RIB CostX®. In addition, numerous free online resources such as our regularly updated webinars can be accessed from our website.
