MyTVET was established in 2017 and we have been at the forefront of “matching and connecting” skills-based training for employment. We match and connect training providers with employers or otherwise. MyTVET has been heavily involved in the development or creation of “training and job placement” from the start and we continue to work on developing new, higher-level or future-proof (high-in-demand) courses to meet the needs of employers cutting across many (levels) of industries. We have a proven track record of delivering engaging, effective courses which meet the needs of learners and employers. Both training providers and employers value and trust our approach; thanks to the subject matter expertise and industry knowledge of our NGO leaders/associates especially our President Mr. Raja Rizal Kamrul Abdullah who was once the former VP of Penang Malay Chamber of Commerce.
MyTVET’s working approach can be categorised into these 4 domains:-
Increase Awareness on TVET
Collaborate With TVET Champions
Facilitate & Advice on Training & Placement
R&D on TVET Policies & Programs
