Malaysia's Human Resources Development Fund (HRDF) celebrated graduates from its Recognition of Prior Experiential Learning (RPEL) convocation on 15 March at the Putra World Trade Centre.
A total of 1,000 graduates received their RPEL certificate from the total 7,328 trainees approved under the RPEL Scheme nationwide. The graduates come from the Federation of JPK Accredited Centres Malaysia (FeMAC) and the Armed Forces Ex-Servicemen Affairs Corporation (PERHEBAT).
Witnessing the occasion were Minister of Human Resources Dato’ Sri (Dr) Richard Riot Jaem, Ministry of Human Resources (MoHR) secretary general Dato’ Dr. Mohd Gazali Abas, and MoHR deputy secretary general (operation) Dato’ Mohamed Elias Bin Abu Bakar.
Dato' Vignaesvaran added: "Schemes, such as RPEL, promote lifelong learning and are instrumental in achieving the aspiration of reaching a 35% skilled workforce, as (they) recognise the experience and skills of workers who have no paper qualifications, reduce their financial burden by improving employability, contribute to a better opportunity for high income, and increase the percentage of a high skilled workforce."
Participants from various occupational backgrounds, including ex-servicemen, will receive their RPEL certification this month in three convocation ceremonies held in Kuching, Kota Kinabalu and Kuala Lumpur.
