Kuala Lumpur: Applications for the UP_TVET Perdana July 2025 intake for full-time courses were open yesterday and will end on June 15, said Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi. Ahmad Zahid, who is also the National Council for Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) chairman, in a statement today called on all Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) graduates and individuals interested in building a career in the skills field to seize this opportunity by applying for the courses offered.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, Ahmad Zahid emphasized that TVET is no longer an alternative choice but a primary path to a strong, competitively paid, and high-potential career in sectors such as automation, green technology, and artificial intelligence. He also highlighted the UP_TVET Flexi route, which offers a modular system for those needing flexibility, allowing learning according to individual timetables and needs. This option has been available since January 2025.

UP_TVET is a centralized application system developed as an initiative of the MADANI government to consolidate access to public and private TVET institutions nationwide. The system aims to streamline the application process and ensure that the programs offered are relevant and aligned with current and future industry needs.
