Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) stands as the cornerstone of a nation’s economic success. In an effort to enhance the quality of life for TVET graduates in Malaysia, the Ministry of Higher Education (MoHE) has taken proactive steps. According to an excerpt from an article published by Berita Harian online on October 16, 2023, titled “Focus on Producing TVET Graduates with Premium Salaries,” it highlights MoHE’s results and efforts in raising the salaries of TVET graduates to exceed RM4,000 per month.
Facing global challenges and bolstering the nation’s economy, investing in TVET education becomes pivotal. MoHE stands at the forefront, ensuring that TVET graduates receive recognition and rewards commensurate with their skills. With close collaboration with industries and a commitment to producing high-quality graduates, Malaysia looks confidently towards the future, acquiring a skilled workforce to propel the country into a new era of prosperity.
In the latest statistical analysis, MoHE has achieved significant milestones, with 10% of TVET graduates receiving premium salaries. However, challenges persist in ensuring that more TVET graduates, especially those from underprivileged backgrounds, attain the desired premium salaries.
MoHE has taken decisive steps to revamp the curriculum in polytechnics, aligning learning with current industry demands. Learning programmes have been reviewed and adjusted, ensuring each graduate possesses the skills demanded by the job market.
In response to global challenges, MoHE has led the way through polytechnic reforms, guaranteeing that TVET graduates not only secure jobs but also attain premium salaries that enhance their quality of life.
In support of the Ministry of Education’s vision for a knowledge-based economy, the SEGi Education Group has established FutureEdge College to offer a diverse range of TVET programmes. These programmes have been specially designed based on high-demand criteria and practical applicability across various industries.
