Introduction

The role of both the public and private Higher Educational Institutions (HEI) has been

proven to be increasingly important and necessary to provide access to higher education in

Malaysia as well as contributing towards realizing Malaysia as a world class education hub

and a centre of excellence.

In its bid to ensure those aspirations are fulfilled, the government had identified

several initial strategic plans to work on. This 2007 National Higher Education Strategic Plan

is focused on transforming Malaysian HEIs into world class institutions. The seven majorinitiatives or strategic plans include widening access and increasing equity, improving the

quality of teaching and learning, enhancing research and innovation, strengthening HEIs,

intensifying internationalization, enshrining lifelong learning and reinforcing the delivery

systems of the Higher Education Minstry. The five critical outcomes of this plan include

governance, leadership, academia, teaching and learning and research & development. In

short, the real focus is the enhancement of the quality of the Malaysian human capital. Upon

graduation, these students must possess first class mentality which Malaysia needs to

remain relevant and competitive globally.

In order to ensure the success of such aspirations, the government through the

Malaysian Higher Education Ministry (MOHE) together with several other relevant Malaysian

Ministries and Agencies must ensure only the predetermined criteria and standards

complying HEIs qualify to establish and operate in Malaysia. Public Higher Education

Institutions are set up with government assistance making it certain that the necessary and

desirable criteria and standards are complied and practiced. Similarly, all efforts areundertaken to ensure Private Higher Education Institutions (PHEIs) adhere and practice the

predetermined necessary and desirable criteria and standards.

In the case of establishing and operating PHEIs, registered companies have to apply

or in some cases invited to establish by the Minister of Higher Education. Hence, all

applicants are required to provide information for approval to the establishment, registration

and operational of PHEIs as well as approval for changes, additional and renewal of existing

practice and/or environment relating to PHEIs in order to reevaluate their capacity, capability

and sustainability to comply with the conditions set by MOHE as well as it. In general, PHEIs

are evaluated in terms of their capability to provide high quality higher education and provide

appropriate and necessary student welfare services to local and international students.

As of 31st December, 2009 there were 20 universities, 20 college universities, 5

branch campuses and 373 colleges that were registered with the Private Higher Educational

Institution Management Sector (PHEIMS). These PHEIs provided access to higher education

to around 425, 757 students including 58,294 international students.

The number of students applying to get into PHEIs has started to grow because of the

availability of loans from several agencies like PTPTN that made it possible for students to

pursue the career of their choice. In order to fulfill the different needs of students as well as

market needs, the number of course of studies including critical courses also began to grow

rapidly. As a result of such developments, more and more private companies are intending to

invest in the private higher education sector.

The Ministry of Higher Education is responsible to oversee the growth of PHEIs

through Private Higher Educational Institutions Management Sector (PHEIMS). As the

government is serious about achieving its objective of realizing Malaysia as an educational

hub as well as a centre of excellence, it will not compromise with quality. In this matter,

MOHE strives to monitor and regulate the growth of PHEIs with emphasis to approving

PHEIs capable of providing quality higher education. In order to realize high quality highereducation services is enabled in PHEIs, MOHE has the Private Higher Education

Institution Act 1996 (Act 555) and Regulations made there under to assist theachievement.


8/77

To assist and complement the Act 555, application procedures are constantly being

reviewed to be in line with the amendments made to the Act and Regulations. As a result of

these developments, the guidelines, criteria and standards together with

application process and procedures will change from time to time in order to regulate and

manage the quality of PHEIs.

Applications are necessary to ensure that the basic and minimum requirements are in

place to guarantee the applying PHEI has the capability to deliver high quality higher

education services. Applications are made necessary for several stages to ensure that the

PHEIs are constantly aware, alert and consistently maintaining their quality services leading

to the quality of PHEIs. These applications allow MOHE to evaluate PHEIs for approvals.

MOHE is serious about approving and will not consider an application deemed not capable of

delivering.

This manual is prepared and attempts to provide guidance to applicants on how to get

started to establish and register PHEIs, obtaining approvals to operate PHEIs as well as

approval for addition, changes and renewal of existing practice and environment and details

relating to PHEIs. However, at this point, the users of this guide are warned that the

procedures listed in this guide were practiced at the time of its publication and might change

from time to time. In such cases, we request that further updated information be obtained

from the official MOHE website, www.mohe.gov.myor www.jpt.mohe.gov.my

This manual intends to inform users that the guidelines provided here only include

applications for approvals involving MOHE. There are several other agencies involved in the

several stages of applications for approvals. Those agencies include Immigration Department

of Malaysia, Malaysian Quality Assurance, Local Fire and Rescue Department, Local HealthDepartment, Local Council, State Immigration Department, Inland Revenue Board,

Employees Provident Fund and Social Security Organisation (SSO).

Stages of Approvals in Starting thePrivate Higher Education Institutions (PHEI) Business

For the purpose of understanding the proses and procedures of approvals of

applications in starting the Private Higher Educational Institutions (PHEI) business in

Malaysia as determined by the Ministry of Higher Education, this manual intends to classify

those applications for approvals into four stages.

The first stage will include among others the application to establish a PHEI.

Applications involve two categories, namely from companies that intends to establish a PHEI

with the status of University/University College/Branch Campus of a foreign University (often

referred as status of University) or a PHEI without the status of University/University

College/Branch Campus of a foreign University (often referred as simply status of non

University University in this Guidebook). Applications involving these two categories differ

slightly with the status of University category having an initial additional requirement to obtain

a letter of invitation from the Minister of Higher Education to establish a PHEI. Except for this

requirement and for the purpose of this guidebook, a general PHEI term will be used to

describe the proses and procedures involved in the different stages for both categories.

The approval for the establishment of a PHEI will include a number of additional

applications from other agencies as a prerequisite to support the application of establishing a

PHEI. These approvals are necessary to ensure that the resulting established PHEI is well

prepared and equipped with the necessary infrastructure, policies, practice and environment

to provide quality higher education services by MOHE. The other agencies role is to ensure

that the infrastructure is safe and the environment is conducive for teaching and learning aswell as clean.

The second stage will include among others to register the established PHEI. A

maximum duration of three years is given to a PHEI to register from the date of approval for

the establishment. This duration is provided to allow the relevant PHEIs to prepare and equip

themselves with the necessary resources including facilities to start operating the PHEI.


12/77

12

Again, the emphasis on the ability of the PHEI to provide high quality higher education

services is prioritized when considering approvals.

The approval for the registeration of an established PHEI will require an additional

approval of infrastructure and premise from local, fire and rescue and health authorities. This

supporting approval is necessary as additional facilities and modification may have been

made after establishment to prepare for the operation of providing the necessary services of

teaching and learning including the approval of conducting study programs and teaching

permits as well as the welfare of the students including student development.

An operating PHEI will experience many challenges. Among them will include the

demands by the stakeholders namely students, parents, society, community, industry, nation

and even the international. In particular, the MOHE must ensure the quality of higher

education services provided by the operating PHEIs are continuously relevant and high. In

order to ensure them, validity of approvals has duration. This is to allow the MOHE to

reevaluate the PHEI before allowing them to continue their services.

Apart from this mandatory reevaluation, some operating PHEIs would have the

capability to expand to meet new, additional and challenging demands. These PHEIs have

to add additional infrastructure in either existing or new premises, add new shareholders for

more capital, increase teacher intake, make preparations for intake of international students

as well as make additional arrangements and allowance to meet the requirements. MOHE

views such changes are necessary to maintain the quality of higher education services

established and operated earlier. Furthermore, such changes may result in a number of non-

compliance to standards, criteria and conditions set by the MOHE to ensure quality servicesthat have to be corrected. If these changes are allowed to be carried out freely without proper

and appropriate intervention, there is a high possibility the quality of services of such PHEIs

may be compromised. In order to prevent such outcomes, MOHE has made it compulsory to

apply for approvals for changes to existing practice policy and environment.


13/77

13

The third stage of approvals include additional applications during operations that is

resulted from the expiry of existing approvals and the intention to change or add to existing

practice, operation and environment. By far, this stage is the most difficult and complicated

for MOHE to handle as operating PHEIs continue to ignore the consequences of not

obtaining prior approvals to change, add and modify an existing practice, operation and

environment.

Providing higher education services has become increasingly challenging. The

academic, employability and skills expectations from graduates are becoming more

complicated, uncertain and demanding. Hence, PHEIs must produce graduates who are

marketable and employable in order to be acknowledged, known and respected to be able to

continuosly attract students. PHEIs must be highly competitive.

However, in the world of education businesses, the inevitable still results. Some

PHEIs are not able to handle the competition and are forced out. Some resort to unhealthy

practices that results in non-compliance of the standards, criteria and conditions as well as

go against the regulations that eventually will force the MOHE to shut them down.

Hence, the fourth stage involves the closure of PHEIs that are either done

voluntarily or are forced to do so by court or MOHE. Though closing down PHEIs is not a

desirable practice by MOHE but in order to safeguard the quality of higher education

providers, this stage is relevant and necessary for the sake of the students welfare and

interest.
