Description
INTRODUCTION In Malaysia, adult education refers to learning opportunities that are undertaken by adults who seek education outside the formal schooling system (11). In the country, formal schooling is from year 1 (standard 1) to year 11 (when students sit for their Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia examination, which is equivalent to GCE, O level). In the Malaysian context, adult education encompasses both formal education beyond year 11 and the non-formal system. The formal system refers to educational activity at an institution of higher learning that leads to a recognized certificate, diploma or degree. Non-formal education is defined as any organized educational activity outside the established formal education system that is intended to serve identifiable clienteles and specific learning objectives. Adult education in Malaysia focuses more on the non-formal system which includes community education programmes, pre-service vocational skilled training and training at the workplace.
