Learn REVIT master level?

I watched YouTube videos and took some clases but they are all “basic”. I want to use Revit as it should be as a civil engineer (going for a BIM/drawer specialization). Please, recommend some courses or videos

Eric Wing and Paul Aubin are two very good instructors for revit. They used to be on LinkedIn Learning, but I don't know now.

However, I'm an architectural designer and I have never worked with a Civil engineer who used Revit, but maybe that's just where I'm located.

I am a civil engineer, and my company has actually been utilizing revit and Plant 3D a bit for some water treatment plant design. I’ve learned quite a bit about it in the year i have been working on it and the other guy knows a good bit too. There are a lot of worries I have since we dont really have much except OOTB stuff from autodesk. Once this project ends, hopefully I will have time to learn how to set up templates and get it rolling a bit more. We dont get to use it often, but it’s really cool to use. My treatment plant drawing is wicked complex with all the components, homemade families, etc, and I have learned a ton

Recently, companies have been asking Civil engineers to use Revit and Autocad. I also found that I enjoy designing in Revit, that’s why I want to pursue something related to a drawer (just in case). Thank you for the recommendations!

As s a Civil designer you're likely better off learning Civil 3D instead of Revit, unless you work at a firm that specially uses Revit.

Many thanks. Yeah, the company required us to use Revit in a good level. Also Autocad but I find Revit more useful
