M’sia should strive to make TVET primary choice for secondary school leavers

: Malaysia needs to move towards making Technical and Vocational Education and Training a primary choice for secondary school leavers, said Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.

“In Malaysia, the Ministry of Education has also initiated TVET education through Vocational Colleges and Polytechnics for Form Three leavers, and this effort needs to be further strengthened so that TVET becomes the primary choice in this country,“ he said. He said that currently, more than 4,000 courses are offered through 1,345 TVET institutions nationwide, with 250,000 admission spots available.

He said students who did not attend the SPM 2023 examination are also eligible to study at TVET institutions, provided they have proficiency in the 3M techniques of reading, writing and arithmetic. Regarding the National TVET Day 2024 celebration, the Deputy Prime Minister expressed his satisfaction with the programmes and activities carried out, noting that more than 10,000 visitors have attended so far, with the number expected to increase with the presence of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim tomorrow.
