The Overseas Youth Vocational Training Program was established by OCAC in 1963. To date, 11,547 students from 37 countries, most notably Malaysia, have attended the Sessions. The Program aims to equip overseas compatriot youths with manufacturing techniques and practical knowledge for use in various walks of life, so that they will be able to contribute to the prosperity of their home country. The 29th Session is currently under way with Transworld Institute of Technology and other 16 colleges and universities participating. Good things come in pairs! With the approval from the Ministry of Education, TIT started to offer the Spring Intake for international degree-seeking students from 2010. All of the 8 students are from Malaysia majoring in Styling and Cosmetology. On the other hand, 20 Mainland Chinese students attended TIT’s Short-term Exchange Program. This also marked the first time that we have 3 students from Fujian Province. These Chinese students will study at several departments for four months while visiting different places in Taiwan at leisure. All in all, these unprecedented achievements have helped TIT gain popularity in Malaysia and Mainland China! |
