Investigating Facilities and Supporting Tools for Blended Learning in Project Management Training: A Case Study in Bahrain

This study explores and offers practical, actionable recommendations for Blended Learning (BL) facilities and supporting tools for project management training programs in Bahrain. The proposed strategy is categorized into two main areas: technology and environment. Technological tools include Learning Management Systems (LMS), such as the OPEN (Online Project EducatioN) Platform, Knowledge Management Systems (KMS), AI-driven tools, laptops, smartphones, and reliable internet connectivity. In addition, they are complemented by the second part of a healthy and conducive classroom environment. The study also emphasizes the critical role of the Bahrain Quality Authority (BQA) Framework in maintaining and improving the quality and effectiveness of BL initiatives. By drawing on prior research published by the author, this paper outlines the final strategies to enhance BL training outcomes, and hence providing a valuable model for Bahrain training organizations.
