STUDENTS with any technical and vocational education and training (TVET) certification will soon have the opportunity to enrol in a diploma programme at a polytechnic, and to pursue a degree after that.

Higher Education Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin said the coming months would see a special pathway being created for TVET students to continue their tertiary education.
