Flexible options in education
YOUR quest for knowledge does not have to end at donning your graduation gown. Lifelong learners have a burning desire for continuous self-improvement embedded in them.
Though the term may seem exclusively applicable to degree holders in the workforce with career progression in mind, lifelong learning is necessary across all ages, levels of education and professional backgrounds.
A Human Resources Development Fund programme – Strengthening of Lifelong Learning for Skills Enhancement – aims to provide a continuous supply of quality local human capital through effective initiatives that can build a worldclass Malaysian workforce.
Such initiatives include encouraging and capitalising on studying while working. With strong support from the Government, lifelong learning is taking a step forward in Malaysia. An important consideration now is to ensure that this endeavour is successful.
Management & Science University (MSU) offers breakthrough ways for working adults to pursue further study.
Lifelong learners from all walks of life may enrol in MSU’s range of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes and choose the best option from a variety of study modes such as weekday, weekend or evening classes, or virtual lessons that are held via video conferencing and supported with online discussions.
