KUCHING – An excellent 5 Star rating recently received by SEGi College Sarawak in MOHE MyQuest Evaluation is a testimonial for its commitment in delivering quality education by meeting the high standards as set out by the Ministry of Higher Education Malaysia (MOHE).

Of 210 private colleges that participated in the MyQuest assessment, 23 colleges shone above the rest, with 3 receiving a 6 star rating and 20 receiving a 5 star rating. Segi College Sarawak was one of the colleges that was awarded 5 stars.

“I am immensely proud of the Group’s performance and the ranking of its colleges” said SEGi University College Vice Chancellor, Emeritus Professor Dr. Muhamad Awang.

The Malaysian Quality Evaluation System for Private Colleges (MyQuest) was launched by the Minister of Higher Education, Datuk Seri Mohamed Khalid Nordin in January as an instrument to evaluate the current performance of private collages in Malaysia in terms of students, programmes, graduates, resources and governance - with the aim of encouraging private colleges to elevate their education standards.

“We are very honoured to be rated 5 stars and recognized as the top 23 colleges in Malaysia” said SEGi College Sarawak Principal, Mdm. Stella Lau.

“This recognition attests to the hard work and commitment of our staff and their focus in delivering quality services and workmanship”.

QUALITY EDUCATION... SEGi College Sarawak, one of the largest private colleges in Borneo, offering industry-driven programmes from foundation programmes to Master Degrees.

As much as 400 active private colleges in Malaysia were invited to take part in the evaluation process and a total of 232 colleges were eligible to be audited. Of these 232 colleges, 210 ended up participating in the evaluation.

Apart from SEGi College Sarawak, SEGi College Subang Jaya, SEGi College Kuala Lumpur and SEGi College Penang were all audited and also attained excellent ratings.

In the cluster-based categories, SEGi scored 6-star ratings for 5 of the 9 categories, the most of any education group.

“To achieve this, we have been working extra hard to make sure that the college meets the requirements outlined by the ministry,” Mdm. Lau added.

“This recognition will be the driving force for us to continuously improve our quality and performance to remain competitive in the market.”

Among others, this ranking will serve as reference point for National Higher Education Fund Corporation (PTPTN) loan approvals and requests to be upgraded to university-college status.

In the overall college-based category, only 3 colleges were awarded the maximum six star rating, 20 colleges attained five stars, 60 colleges attained four stars and the remaining received three stars and below.
