PONTIAN: The Higher Education Ministry (MOHE) has been proposed to formulate a new policy on Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET), said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob (pic).
He said that MOHE and related agencies needed to rebrand the stream to eliminate parents’ perception of TVET as second class education or irrelevant.
"Many parents have a negative perception of TVET and consider this stream as second class or it focuses on dropouts only.
"However, when compared with countries such as Germany and France, this education stream is the main choice,” he said in his speech at the launch of the Kolej Komuniti@Pontian, at the Muafakat Complex Sungai Pinggan, here Sunday (March 6).
