The virtual in-country training programme, Measuring Training Efficiency and Effectiveness using Return on Investment Technique by TVET Regional Centre, SEAMEO Voctech and co-organised with the Technical and Vocational Education Training Division at Malaysia’s Ministry of Education culminated in a closing ceremony on Wednesday.

SEAMEO Voctech Centre Director Alias bin Haji Abu Bakar; Deputy Director for Training Development and Industrial Linkages Sector of the Technical and Vocational Education, Training Division at Malaysia’s Ministry of Education Hajah Norhayati binti Haji Abdul Wahab; SEAMEO Voctech Deputy Director of Administration Pengiran Haji Mohamad Sufri bin Pengiran Ali; and Deputy Director for Professional Affairs and Research Specialist of SEAMEO Voctech cum course facilitator Dr Paryono; and SEAMEO Voctech management officers attended.

The programme comprising 27 participants under Malaysia’s Ministry of Education came to fruition with the aim of levelling up their training measurement knowledge and skills as trainers and vocational practitioners using return on investment (ROI) technique to better assess end users and clientele in their respective organisations or institutions.

Participants were introduced to Levels 1 to 5 training measurements, which will enable them to be aware of potential impacts, prompting them to be more conscious and mindful of their decisions and actions.

“The five levels of training measurements will equip you with the knowledge and skills to decide what level your training programmes deserve to have and are suitable for.

“Knowing that you have learnt the training measurement, I believe you are ready to implement those competencies,” said the SEAMEO Voctech Centre director.

Meanwhile, Hajah Norhayati said, “Players involved are now able to plan and develop a better training programme that will upgrade the quality of Technical and Vocational Education Training under the supervision of Ministry of Education Malaysia by evaluating the important potential impacts of training and better planning for training in the future.”

The centre director congratulated participants on receiving their certificates of completion and welcomed them as training alumni of the SEAMEO VOCTECH Regional Centre.
