The Dual Training Programme (DTP), which is being implemented by the Ministry of Labour and Industrial Relations since 2015 in collaboration with the Human Resource Development Council (HRDC), is a mix of practical on-the-job training and classroom studies. The Dual Training Programme integrates practical on-the-job training with classroom studies, creating a dynamic learning environment that directly meets the needs of companies while mitigating labour market mismatches. Courses under this programme are precisely tailored to fulfil specific employer requirements, developed collaboratively by industry associations and training institutions to meet accreditation standards set by the Tertiary Education Commission
