Abstract

Building Information Modelling (BIM) education hinges on cooperation with the industry, universities, technical colleges, and communities by allowing practice and specialisation in training. This requires studying specific issues in implementing BIM for TVET educators in Malaysia to unveil the current status of BIM in the profession. The Malaysian TVET Institutions are responding to these barriers by implementing BIM with a curriculum design. The collaboration extends to multiple professionals in the industries, mainly by providing adequate education and training to their educators. With this objective, a systematic literature search of the Web of Science (WoS) and SCOPUS databases was carried out using the Reporting Standards for the Systematic Evidence Synthesis (ROSES) method. Based on keywords, abstracts, and full article content, inclusion and exclusion criteria were chosen to thoroughly study 14 articles, analyse their integration and evaluation methods, and derive findings. The findings serve as empirical evidence to determine the barriers to implementing BIM among educators in Malaysia TVET institutions. The barriers such as change management, transitioning from traditional educational paradigms, faculty expertise gaps, misalignment with industry needs, and limited exposure to real-world working environments need to be addressed. The paper concluded by recommending strategies for implementing BIM among educators. The outlined strategies can help in the decision-making process for BIM implementation in Malaysian TVET Institutions, thus helping educators mitigate barriers and prepare effective strategies for BIM implementation.
