摘要:Technical and Vocational Education (TVE) is an important path for the development of vocational education skills itself. The implementation of the Vocational College Standard Curriculum (VCSC) at a Vocational College (VC) is a major challenge to the teaching staff involved. One of the courses offered in the program of Construction Technology is Computer-Aided Design (CAD) program which requires the use of AutoCAD software in the process of drawing. The almost non-existence or the unavailability of the textbooks for referrals makes it hard and difficult for most of the non-option teachers to find the direction of teaching that they want to deliver. Therefore, this research was conducted to identify the level of readiness of using the AutoCAD software among the Construction Technology educators at vocational colleges (CV) throughout Peninsular Malaysia. The research methodology used in this study is by reviewing past studies or literature reviews. The results show that there are four main factors that contributed to the level of readiness which is the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and training. In this regard, this research will also explain the details pertinent to the factors that affect the readiness of using AutoCAD software among the Construction Technology educators at vocational colleges. Through the results of this research, it is hoped that it can provide further insight for the Technical and Vocational Education Division (TVED) to develop and produce an initial course for all VC’s educators, which is in line with the latest technology before the implementation of any new program is carried out.
