Management in the field of education
My great passion has been an involvement in the development of active learning workflows at university level and presenting those possibilities to other teachers. As such I have been conducting various training programs for our fellow teachers. Considering study program level, I have given inputs into new and modern study topics (especially including new BIM subjects for both vertical- and horizontal-BIM interests groups). Those new BIM subjects are built through my industry (private sector) experience where I have been active from 2004 onward. My full professional career is also visible at LinkedIn page.
My current and future goals are to develop BIM related subjects in our current study program. All my courses are continuously updated, and connected workflows are added yearly basis because the possibilities of applications in where BIM principles are applied, changes all the time and you just can’t stay into past with your teaching workflows. The most recent effort is dealing with the course “Building Information Management and Modelling (BIM II)” in where a major facelift was carried out in autumn 2024 to make it a first course in Estonia that explains information management process according to available CEN/ISO standards. This is currently a hot topic in many countries and will continue to be the following years to come.
My advantage is that I can connect the state-of-the-art knowledge, experience and examples about the use and possibilities of BIM from a private sector (with international experience) into educational sector. International relationships can help to develop common study programs (subjects), apply for new BIM related projects and be a leader to push the well-known Nordics knowledge and experience about BIM further.
