NCIA sponsorship for the 1st batch of Tourist Guide & IATA/UFTAA Foundation Diploma Certificate Presentation Ceremony
      Print Version

Congratulations to the 1st batch of NCIA sponsorship students who received excellent results in their recent Tourist Guide and IATA/UFTAA Foundation Diploma exam.


One of the missions of NCIA which falls under NCER is to upgrade the human capital development which is the key ingredient in the overall socio-economic development of our nation.

And Tourism happens to be one of the core economic sectors which is important in accelerating the growth of Malaysia in general and Penang in particular as it has been awarded the UNESCO HERITAGE CITY status.

Hence, NCIA in collaboration with MATTA Penang Chapter and Sentral Technology College Penang has sponsored local travel agents to attend the Tourist Guide course and IATA/UFTAA Foundation Diploma course which were carried out under the NCIA’s “Stimulus Package”. Through this Certificate and Foundation Diploma course, local travel agents’ skills and knowledge was enhanced to meet the ever increasing demand in this sector.

The first batches of students for these 2 courses sponsored by NCIA have made SENTRAL proud with their achievement in the recent examinations. SENTRAL has the highest number of passes for the Tourist Guide December 2009 examination here in Penang. As for the IATA/UFTAA Foundation Diploma March 2010 exam, almost half the number of students from the class scored distinctions.

Congratulations to all of them!
