    Hi,
    I am an Architectural Technologist with about 2 years experience in a firm of approx 20 people. I have been lucky enough to be able to work on a wide range of projects (housing, office fitouts, commercial).

    However, recently I feel like I would like a change. My salary could be a lot better and I'd like the opportunity to work on larger scale projects. I am open to the idea of upskilling in order to improve my marketability. I know some of the IT's provide BIM master's, are there any other 'in demand' areas that you would suggest focussing on?

    Needlessly condescending. I am not a BIM manager nor do I have the skills to be one. I have never used BIM in practice only tutorials etc.

    Maybe you should read his question first. As the above its remotely what he was asking.

    I moved to dublin an got a job as an Architectural Technologist last year and i found most of the firms at that time looked for BIM as a requirement.
    However where i moved to didnt require it. Since then i've done an evening course in Dublin Institute of Design which was a starter course for Level 2. Very good course and i'm using Revit at home to gain knowledge and speed.
