description The highest level of BIM adoption is the utilization of BIM by construction site operatives who are knowledgeable and skilled in BIM. Furthermore, the full benefits of BIM cannot be achieved without construction site operatives that are knowledgeable and proficient in BIM. Despite the creation of educational models for BIM training by colleges targeting construction professionals, there is currently no specific BIM learning model for construction site operatives. The aim of this research is to develop a BIM learning model to assist construction site operatives in their BIM transformation. The study employed a positivist philosophical research design, which required the use of a quantitative technique. The BIM learning model for construction site operatives was developed by using the SAMR (substitution, augmentation, modification, and redefinition) model, Bloom’s digital taxonomy, social learning theory, and design thinking theory. The hypotheses derived from the model were analyzed using structural equation modeling. The study findings indicate that the learning standards for BIM tools, BIM technologies, and BIM skills will enable construction site operatives to effectively utilize BIM tools. The most crucial factor in learning standards for BIM tools is the implementation of substantial BIM tools to modify work processes. The findings also indicated that engaging in professional role-play and interactive assignments had the greatest influence on learning results. The research asserts that the model’s implementation will improve performance and efficiency on construction sites by providing construction site operatives with the necessary abilities to proficiently utilize BIM technologies.
