well, good for TARC then wink.gif.

i will need to wait for the official news published on the news, coz i cant watch 8TV. i'll reply after i've got some reference on it. but in my opinion, TS' adv dip should be recognized bcoz the recognition is a process quite similar to accreditation, where group of experts and authorities assess the school's abilities and the quality of its graduates.

if it just got accredited, it means it just assessed the last graduated batch, which is TS' batch. TS and all batches below him should get automatic recognition. i cant say for sure for previous batches.

cks2k2,

no, malaysia still do not recognize any top-up degrees.

But, my younger brother is graduate in TARC June 2006 , so his certificate not recognised ??? blink.gif NOT FAIR ! biggrin.gif
And his academic result is just excellent, top 1 % in the course.
(he also wan to apply for teacher, then two brothers can venture into education business)

Not FAIR la, at least recognised from June 2006 onwards la .... My pity young brother!!

TARC existence , "Tunku Abdul Rahman College (TARC) was established on 24 February 1969 under the leadership of the Malaysian Chinese Association (MCA)."
So, its 39 YEARS !!

Quote from THE STAR page 3 ,
QUOTE
"MINISTER DATUK MUSTAPA MOHAMED said in the statement yesterday that the programmes had been approved by a permanent committee on evaluation and recognition of qualification chaired by him.
The Advanced Diploma programmes are considered equivalent to a GENERAL FIRST DEGREE from a recognised institution."

If its equiv. to degree? Why should they just put it as degree instead of Adv. Diploma...

The reason is simple... either the module u taking is basic and not reach a limit of degree level or it really meant for Adv Diploma only!!!

Keep in mind... Advance Diploma is TOTALLY Different from Degree!!!
Degree is higher level than Adv. Diploma, if u say d same... den why this Adv. Diploma still exist and claim it as so call or equiv. to Degree Level?!
Thats wat make it a difference that Advance Diploma is TOTALLY Different from Degree!!!

A college can not offer its own Degree, thats why TARC offer Advanced Diploma.

A University can offer Degree, like MMU, UTAR, UNITAR.

And, yes, since JPA saids it equivalent, that it so !!
ACCA/CIMA is not a DEGREE, but is equivalent to honour Degree under JPA system.
So, u might argue than ACCA/MICPA is lower than Degree ?

U know how tough Advanced Diploma IN Financial Accounting (AFA)is, there is always 40-50% failing rates.
And Advanced Diploma in Financial Accounting can claim maximum exemption from ACCA, which some Degree CAN'T even do so.
Even INTI Accouting Degree that course RM 50K can not claim max exemption.
Therefore,since AFA course is recognised by International Board like ACCA. is Malaysia standard higher than this international board ?

And I have to admit that, my TOP UP degree programme is SO MUCH EASIER than Adv Diploma..

u cannot use the argument on ACCA bcoz ACCA is a professional qualification. regardless if u have any other qualifications, holding an ACCA is a license to practice. this is the reason why ACCA is recognized as an honours degree. all other professional qualifying degrees have the same recognition from JPA.

advanced diploma, on the other hand is recognized as equivalent to a general 1st degree. it does not carry any professional qualifications. JPA recognizes it as a degree so that u can get higher pay, not bcoz u could perform as a full qualified professional with the same degree.

TOO Bad untill Now, I still did not get a pay raise, since I got a general Degree & a honour Degree.
