Abstract
Policies and recommendations influence the planning, development and implementation of technical and vocational education in Malaysia. The education starts formally at the upper secondary leading through post secondary to tertiary levels. Tertiary level education is most important with the main objective to provide a complete knowledgeable, competent and highly skilled workforce required to propel the country towards becoming an industrialized nation and achieving developed status by the year 2020. The phenomenal growth of diverse tertiary technical and vocational institutions in the last few years augurs well for the development of the country. Important factors that influence the development of technical and vocational education to meet industry needs include globalization, knowledge-based economy, technology advancement and the emergence of new technologies. Issues and challenges must be addressed for technical and vocational education to be continuously relevant and make significant impacts.
