Melaka, 26?27 April 2025 ? EDUMi Sdn. Bhd. joined forces with Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM) at the Kementerian Pendidikan Tinggi (KPT) Edu Fair, also known as the Jom Masuk U 2025 (Zon Selatan). Held at the Dewan Canselor, Universiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka (UTeM), the two-day event served as a major educational hub for students across Melaka, Johor, and Negeri Sembilan.
The UUM booth attracted a consistent flow of visitors, ranging from SPM and STPM leavers to diploma holders and working professionals interested in postgraduate studies. Throughout the fair, UUM representatives provided comprehensive briefings on academic programmes, UPUOnline consultation, and the specific entry requirements for the 2025/2026 intake.
EDUMi complemented these efforts by introducing its specialised student mobility services and digital educational support tools, further strengthening the mission to produce globally oriented Malaysian graduates.
Guided Pathways for SPM Leavers and Postgraduate Aspirants
For many school leavers, the transition to tertiary education can be overwhelming. The collaboration between UUM and EDUMi at UTeM focused on providing clarity through several key initiatives:
- UPU Consultation: Direct guidance for SPM and STPM graduates on selecting the right programmes to maximise their chances of admission into public universities.
- Career-Aligned Education: Detailed discussions on how UUM?s management-focused degrees align with high-demand industries in Malaysia and abroad.
- Flexible Learning Options: Prospective postgraduate students were introduced to UUM?s flexible study modes, including part-time and Open and Distance Learning (ODL) options tailored for working adults.
Expanding Horizons with Global Student Mobility
As a spin-off company of UUM with Malaysia Digital (MD) status, EDUMi.my showcased its expertise in international student placement. This outreach is particularly beneficial for students looking to gain a competitive edge through international exposure.
Visitors to the booth explored various global pathways, specifically focused on:
- Study Abroad in Ireland and the UK: Information on partner institutions in the Republic of Ireland and the United Kingdom, where students can pursue world-class qualifications.
- Student Support Ecosystem: Insight into EDUMi?s nine-step support model, which assists students from the initial consultation and visa application to accommodation and on-arrival support.
- Scholarship Advice: Guidance on identifying financial aid, including government loans (PTPTN) and corporate scholarships for both local and overseas studies.
Connecting Institutions and Future Talent
The KPT Jom Masuk U fair continues to be a vital platform for the Ministry of Higher Education to bring academic opportunities directly to the community. The event at UTeM fostered meaningful engagement between educators and the next generation of talent, ensuring students are well-equipped to make informed decisions about their futures.
By participating in these regional roadshows, EDUMi and UUM reinforce their commitment to accessible, quality education and the development of a skilled workforce that can thrive in a globalised economy. Following the Melaka event, EDUMi continues to offer digital consultations and resources through its platform to support students throughout their academic journey.
