Trimble expands Pinnacle training

Trimble and Eagle Point Software have expanded their training tie-up by placing Trimble Learn content inside Eagle Point’s Pinnacle Series platform for architecture, engineering and construction users, according to announcements published on August 25. The companies said the collaboration is aimed at helping firms train staff on software use and day-to-day workflows through a single learning environment. (eaglepoint.com) Trimble said the arrangement gives AECO teams a path from in-platform learning to official Trimble accreditation and instructor-led courses. (prnewswire.com) ### What exactly changed in the product setup? Trimble Learn content is now available within Pinnacle Series, the companies said, meaning Eagle Point customers can access Trimble training material from inside the learning platform they already use. The initial release includes instruction on Trimble SketchUp fundamentals and foundational Trimble workflows tied to design and asset management. (prnewswire.com) Pinnacle Series is described by Eagle Point as a learning management system for AEC and manufacturing users with training videos, documents, learning paths and on-demand support resources. Eagle Point’s support materials say the platform is positioned not only for formal training but also for day-to-day problem solving and search-based help. ### Why are these two companies pairing Trimble Learn with Pinnacle Series? (eaglepoint.com) Steve Biver, chief operating officer of Eagle Point Software, said companies rely on software to keep projects moving but still need training that helps teams use those tools consistently. He said adding Trimble Learn content to Pinnacle Series is intended to make it easier for organizations to build skills and standardize project delivery. (prnewswire.com) Trimble said the collaboration is meant to reach AECO teams “where they already work,” while creating a direct route to official accreditation and instructor-led training through Trimble Learn. That framing ties the partnership to workforce training and adoption rather than a standalone software sale. (eaglepoint.com) ### Which users are supposed to benefit first? Architecture, engineering and construction professionals are the named target group in both companies’ announcements. The first training modules focus on SketchUp fundamentals and baseline workflows, which suggests the early emphasis is on onboarding and common process training rather than advanced specialist instruction. That is an inference from the scope of the initial content described by the companies. (prnewswire.com) Eagle Point has been adding outside training content to Pinnacle Series through a series of partnerships, including earlier announcements involving Bluebeam, Bentley, Egnyte and other vendors listed on its news page. The Trimble deal fits that broader pattern of using Pinnacle Series as a distribution point for vendor-authored training. (prnewswire.com) ### How does this fit Eagle Point’s broader strategy? Eagle Point said the collaboration strengthens its goal of making Pinnacle Series a single destination for software training, learning resources and workflow guidance. The company’s product pages describe Pinnacle Series as an applied learning platform built for AECO and manufacturing organizations. Trimble’s public news pages show the company has continued to push product and workflow initiatives across construction, supply chain and field technology in 2026. (eaglepoint.com) The Pinnacle arrangement adds a training-distribution component to that broader software and platform push. That characterization is based on Trimble’s 2026 release record. ### What happens next for customers? The companies said Trimble training content is available now in Pinnacle Series. (eaglepoint.com) They also said additional releases are expected later in 2026, while users seeking formal credentials or live instruction can continue into Trimble Learn for accreditation and instructor-led training.
