“…In the beginning, this programme was mostly offered at polytechnics and community colleges. The Polytechnic & Community College Education Department of Malaysia (JPPKK) was the entity responsible for the initiative, which was shortly followed by the incorporation of 11 other community colleges in February 2007 (Watisin et al, 2015). In spite of this, the WBL programme was moved to polytechnics in June of 2010 due to a wide range of challenges experienced at the previously mentioned schools (Watisin & Hashim, 2014).…”

In this investigation, a mediation model was tested in which social support was the link between Trait Emotional Intelligence (TEI) and scholastic flexibility in the workplace. Previous studies have found a link between TEI and job flexibility in call center workers and college students, but the impact on WBL hotel management students has been understudied. To assess the impact of TEI on social support and career flexibility, a total of 86 Work-Based Learning (WBL) students in final year hotel management programme at a Malaysian polytechnic were surveyed. It is postulated that TEI would have a beneficial effect on both occupational flexibility and social networks. The role of social support in mediating the link between TEI and flexibility in the workplace was also investigated. To examine the connection between the variables, a regression analysis and a Sobel test were used. The finding showed TEI was associated with a more flexible work environment and a more encouraging social network. This research adds to the limited body of knowledge on TEI, social support, and career flexibility. More study is needed to fully grasp the connection between TEI and career adaptability in WBL students in other courses, and this research may utilize a different mediator variable.

Community College Malaysia is one of the Technical Education and Vocational Training Institutions in the country that plays an important role in steering the country's aspirations to become a developed nation by 2020. It focuses mainly on the supply of human capital among the youth future worker fit with skills, competencies and efficient industry requirements. However, the income earned varies widely based on the industry's ability to provide employment. The income factors led to an increase or decrease in the number of graduates' employability. There are more than ten categories of programs offered by community colleges and the numbers of employability relating to the demand from industries providing job opportunities to skilled workers. Therefore, this study aims to conduct a descriptive analysis of the earnings and employment of Community Colleges graduates based on occupational field and gender. The data were obtained by the survey of Community Colleges graduates in 2018. The study population consisted of 7725 graduates and 367 respondents were involved as samples who answered their respective job status in graduate's employability survey provided by the ministry. The result shows that most respondents received a salary between RM1501-RM2000, while the rest of the graduates earned between RM1001-RM1500 and RM1001-RM1500. In the gender factor of employment, female graduates exceed compared to male graduates on the income scale of RM1000 and below. However, at higher income levels of RM1501-2000 and above, male graduates earn more than their counterparts, the female graduates. The findings of this study are expected to be a future guide and encouragement, especially for community colleges to study skill programs that are in line with industry requirements and produce a competent and dynamic human capital to enhance the country's economy.
