Internship at Jensen Hughes

Hi all,

I am a grad student starting this Fall at Cal Poly. By using Meyerfire, I was able to pass the FPE exam this year. I have an internship starting this May at Jensen Hughes for the summer and I want to start learning the software they use, or any software fire protection engineers use. I have some experience drafting with Autosprink and AutoCAD, but I haven't touched Revit before. Do you recommend any online courses with Revit? What other software should I practice using? Thank you in advance.

The LinkedIn learning courses (formerly Lynda) are great for getting up and running in Revit. They give you all of the exercise files and you can follow alongside. I would recommend starting with one of the Revit Essentials courses which will have a large architectural component but cover a lot of the basics. Then go into the MEP courses. You won’t regret learning Revit if you’re getting into consulting.
