Abstract

TVET teacher education programme like any other TVET educational programme has to work closely with the industries for the training and experiences. This had made industries as one of the main stakeholders in the programme. Due to the rapid changes and development within the industries environment, the roles of the industries are deemed to be vague. Therefore, this research has aim to identify the elements needed in improving the roles of the industries in sustaining TVET teacher education programme in Malaysia. A qualitative research method has been chose to explore this matter. Ten experts related to TVET and industries have been chosen through purposive sampling. The data were analysed with thematic analysis using a manual pencil and paper method. The thematic analysis process has produced a clear indication of the result. There are 11 elements identified that describe the role need to be played by the industries. Overall, a theme that has emerged for this role is mutual understanding. It is hope by understanding the real roles of the industries, the development of TVET in Malaysia will be improved. © 2017 IEEE.
