I am an instructor at a university and my students have a group project. I know you are unable to use BIM 360 with an education license, but is there another way students can "workshare" using a central model without BIM 360? The students and I are using Revit 2024 with education licenses.

Do you have a local server?

Based on something I´ve read, the educational license does not have restrictions about worksharing. It does not have to be BIM360. The local network is always an option. So, if your student´s computers are connected to a server, you should be able to do this.

Remember : without the difficult times in your LIFE, you wouldn't be who you are today. Be grateful for the good and the bad. ANGER doesn't solve anything. It builds nothing, but it can destroy everything...

@Alfredo_Medina The one high school I mentor, the IT department there has the network set up so the students can NOT use worksharing on local network. It is very frustrating. Trying to get Autodesk to give out educational licenses (for free) for BIM Collaborate Pro (ACC) is next to impossible.
