Abstract

In vocational training, keeping up with new technology is a challenge. Building Information Modeling (BIM) tools are now increasingly replacing traditional skills, which is irreversible advance in architecture and construction sector. This leads to changes in the curriculums of training courses, teaching and learning methods, especially in Technical Vocational education and Training (TVET). This article explores an application process of BIM tools in BIM Modeler or architecture technician training courses at Ho Chi Minh City Construction College as a case study, reflecting experience of change management toward new technology integration, its implication in and challenges for TVET’s methodology. The author also recommends that cooperation between industry and TVET in training is one of the most effective solution to solve human resource problem for construction sector.
