Abstract

Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) is essential for equipping students with industry-relevant skills and bridging the gap between vocational training and higher education. In Malaysia, the TVET matriculation program serves as a pathway for students transitioning into degree program. However, concerns persist regarding its effectiveness in preparing students for the academic and technical demands of higher degrees while meeting industry expectations. This study reviews previous research on TVET models, then the features of TVET models are extracted from different countries. The ideal TVET model is then proposed. The implementation plan of TVET model is executed to enhance the employability of students in TVET education program. Enabling the information technology in designing the TVET model, this paper discusses the effectiveness of executing the TVET model. Four main domains are discussed for effectiveness of TVET model. They are curriculum, implementation, feedback and review. This TVET model provides a structured framework for continuous curriculum improvement, ensuring better student preparedness and workforce alignment. © Little Lion Scientific.
