Use case - Teach ISO 19650
Teach ISO 19650 with a working plan
To teach ISO 19650 so it sticks, let students run it: define the EIR, build the BEP and MIDP, check the models and sign off the handover in a real project. Plannerly is free for universities, with a guest lecture, a 4-5 hour assignment with marking criteria and a free class Q&A.
Want graduates who can answer your information requirements? Point your local university here: their students run the whole ISO 19650 workflow in a real Plannerly project, free for their course, with a ready-made assignment.
The BIM coordinators you'll hire next are students today. Here's how their course leaders can teach ISO 19650 by doing it: a free guest lecture, a hands-on assignment in a real project and a live class Q&A.
Help your local course teach ISO 19650 the way practices use it: students write the requirements, plan the BEP and MIDP, check models and sign off a handover, in a real project that's free for their university.
Train clients or classes with a plan people build themselves: a recorded guest lecture, a four-stage ISO 19650 assignment with marking criteria, and free certified courses to back it up.
Your students build a working ISO 19650 plan themselves: the EIR, the BEP and MIDP, the model checks and the handover. Plannerly is free for your course, with a guest lecture, a 4-5 hour assignment, marking criteria and a free class Q&A.
Free for universities and colleges. Students can also practise on a free account.
The problem
Students can recite the acronyms but can't run a project
How it works
How to teach ISO 19650 with Plannerly, step by step
-
Register your course
A professor or course leader registers the course for free education access, takes a short self-paced course on the basics, and has a quick setup call with us. Students can't register themselves.
Free access for the whole class -
Show the guest lecture
Watch ISO 19650 Made Practical together in class, or share it beforehand. It shows why information management matters and how requirements, responsibilities and checking connect in a real project.
The whole workflow seen end to end -
Set the assignment
Students work through four stages - define the EIR, develop the BEP and MIDP, verify the models, complete the handover - alone or in teams. About 4-5 hours, with marking criteria included.
Work you mark inside Plannerly -
Book the class Q&A
Invite our team for a free one-hour live Q&A after the lecture, during the assignment or after submission. Collect your class's questions first, so the hour goes where they need it.

Assignment starter project
A project for the four-stage ISO 19650 assignment - EIR, BEP and MIDP, model verification, handover - so you can try each stage before your students do.
Case studies
How other educators teach ISO 19650 with Plannerly
An MSc module that went from elective to core with every student certified, a national programme in Croatia that trained 1,000+ students without waiting for a mandate, and a graduate who went from architecture to BIM coordinator.
Owners get graduates who already speak the language: Croatia built a national BIM education programme on Plannerly without waiting for a mandate, and trained 1,000+ students.
The coordinators you'll hire come from programmes like these: LSBU made Plannerly certification part of the core of two MSc programmes, with 70+ students per cohort.
Ece Mülazımoğlu went from architecture graduate to BIM coordinator at Scott Brownrigg with Plannerly training - the path your next hire could take.
Training providers teach the same way: real projects, free certificates, and a national programme in Croatia built on templates and live project workflows.
Other educators have done it: LSBU made it a core MSc module with every student certified, and Croatia trained 1,000+ students nationally. Their stories show how to start.

How LSBU embedded Plannerly into their construction curriculum
London South Bank University · MSc education
Dr. Zulfikar Adamu integrated Plannerly certification into MSc coursework, achieving 100% student completion in 1-2 days. The module grew from an elective to a mandatory core across two programmes with 70+ students per cohort.
If every university that teaches construction introduces Plannerly, in three to four years you have an army of graduates who know how to implement ISO 19650 properly.

Scaling national BIM education
Croatia · National education initiative
Without waiting for a government mandate, built a national BIM education program using Plannerly as the central hub for templates, learning, and live project workflows.
We didn't wait for a mandate. We just started with education, templates, and real projects.

Ece Mülazımoğlu · Career story
Ece used Plannerly training to build practical confidence in Revit, ISO 19650, BIM Execution Plans, and information management workflows, turning an early architecture role into a clearer BIM and digital construction path.
At the end of that certification, I felt like I had some confidence in me to go for this path.

5 out of 5
Many software companies get this wrong. They don't create content or videos. You can't ask me to bring your tool into my curriculum when there's nothing for students to learn from. Plannerly has all of that.

Students love Plannerly and it makes my life so much easier!
