Big incentives to hire TVET grads


PETALING JAYA: Experts welcome the larger allocation for technical and vocational education and training (TVET) as it shows the government understands the importance of TVET graduates for all types of industries, be it manufacturing or agriculture.

On the setting aside of RM6.8bil to enable more people to take up TVET courses and further fortify the certification of TVET graduates, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said this is in line with increased public-private partnerships, as 61 Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) were signed between public TVET education institutions and 44 private companies as of Oct 5.
