Greetings from VTAR Institute (VTAR)
Hi Everyone!
Happy New Year to all our lovely students, dedicated instructors and management staff! May the year ahead be truly fabulous filled with growth, success and new opportunities for everyone.
First and foremost, we are thrilled to announce that our institution has been awarded a 5-star rating for the Electrical & Electronic Programme and a 4-star rating for the Beauty Programme. We are extremely proud and delighted by this recognition, as it reflects the high standards of our programmes and their strong alignment with industry needs set by the Department of Skills Development (JPK). This achievement reassures students and parents that they are choosing programmes that are recognised for their quality, excellence and credibility.
As we resume training after a well-deserved break, this marks a great opportunity to refocus on learning, self-improvement and personal growth. We would also like to extend our heartfelt congratulations to all 2025 STPM and SPM candidates who have successfully completed their final examinations.
We understand that after completing exams, it is natural to feel exhausted or uncertain while awaiting results. For those who may not be academically inclined or are unsure about their next step, do not let this discourage you. Instead, let it motivate you to move forward and pursue your dreams. Regardless of whether you come from the arts or science stream, choosing a pathway that aligns with your interests and strengths is essential.
VTAR is an excellent choice for students who wish to pursue vocational education and obtain the Malaysian Skills Certificate (SKM). The SKM is awarded by the Ministry of Human Resources Malaysia and is officially recognised by the Malaysian government for employment. In addition to SKM programmes, VTAR also offers a variety of skills-based and diploma-level courses to support diverse career aspirations.
We warmly welcome students and parents to join our upcoming 4-day Open Day, taking place on 28 February, 1 March, 14 March, and 15 March, from 10.00 a.m. to 5.00 p.m. This is a valuable opportunity to explore our modern and specialised technical institution, where hands-on and applied learning form the core of our educational approach. With strong industry collaborations and practical training programmes, VTAR provides a fast track to employment and career readiness.
In addition, we are pleased to announce our Career Fair on 26 March 2026, where leading industry players will be setting up booths to recruit students, offering valuable exposure and employment opportunities.
Furthermore, our Digitalisation students are preparing for an exciting one-month learning experience in China, focusing on hands-on training in Digital Industry Robotics. Through this programme, students will gain exposure to advanced technologies, real-world industrial environments and practical applications, equipping them with the skills and knowledge needed to meet global industry demands.
We encourage you to take some time to browse our website, where you can explore our character-building activities, Open Day highlights, sports events, career fair updates and the first edition of our Bulletin. You will also gain deeper insight into VTAR’s holistic training approach, as well as our mission and vision giving you the confidence that VTAR is the right choice for your future.
