Our bigger mission
OUM plays a significant role in supporting the nation’s aspiration to enhance and widen educational opportunities among Malaysians. Through the provision of Accreditation of Prior Experiential Learning (APEL), individuals can capitalise on their work experience and prior experiential learning to gain admission into OUM’s undergraduate and postgraduate programs.
Since its inception in 2015, the 2030 agenda has provided a blueprint for shared prosperity in a sustainable world — a world where all people can live productive, vibrant and peaceful lives on a healthy planet.
All people should have access to lifelong learning opportunities that can help them acquire the knowledge and skills needed to exploit opportunities.
This is because a good quality education is one that provides all learners with capabilities they require to become economically productive, develop sustainable livelihoods, contribute to peaceful and democratic societies and enhance individual well-being
Since 2006, The APEL programs serve to bridge the gap between traditional textbook learning and career development for positive change through our accredited experiential education programs abroad. With the launch of the SDGs, we are fusing the UN’s 17 Global Goals framework with The APEL Program’s model to continue exposing students to sustainability challenges and initiatives around the world.
To provide recognition for learning acquired from non-formal
To encourage the participation of adults in higher education
To potentially reduce the time and cost of completing a study
