3 Lifelong learning (LLL) enables Malaysians to meet the changing skill needs of a high-income economy and maximises the potential of individuals who are currently outside the workforce through reskilling and upskilling opportunities. It also enables the development of personal interests and talents for a more fulfilled life where Malaysians of all ages constantly seek out learning opportunities to enrich themselves. Lifelong learning will become a way of life for all Malaysians. There will be high quality formal, non-formal, and informal programmes in a wide range of disciplines and topics to support both professional and personal development. Everyone will have access to these opportunities, regardless of income level or background. To achieve these outcomes, the Ministry will increase public awareness of the benefits of LLL, raise the quality of existing programmes and introduce more innovative programmes to broaden the appeal of LLL. Key initiatives within this Shift include: Creating a framework for recognising prior learning, including the establishment of clear pathways for re-entry into the education system, establishing a national credit system to enable accumulation of modular credits over time, and stipulating clear criteria for recognising prior experience; Launching stakeholder engagement programmes that incentivise participation, and improving the existing marketing infrastructure (for example, smartphone applications, portal) to make it easier for the public to search for information on available programmes; and Continuing to provide financial support to disadvantaged groups and tax reduction incentive schemes to companies, and to work with financial institutions to create financial 6
