Kolej Teknologi Yayasan Sabah

Kolej Teknologi Yayasan Sabah (KTYS) mission is to contribute and complement the efforts made by the Yayasan Sabah Group in improving the quality of life of the people of Sabah through education and life-long learning.

KTYS's objectives include providing access to high-quality academic Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) education, producing inclusive and competent graduates, and establishing a governance system that is high-quality, efficient, and integrity-based.

Towards this end, smart partnerships are built with relevant industry players, educational and training institutions. On the development of human capital, KTYS is working closely with the government to equip its students with the necessary skills in meeting the job market's requirements.

As such, KTYS has taken a new approach in education by adopting a Competency-Based Training approach by providing the students training and placing them in the job market. The objectives are to produce more skilled workers and meet the demands of the industry.

The certificate programmes offered under the Malaysian Skills Development Programmes are Office Management, Automotive Technology, Building Construction, Welding Technology, Pastry and Culinary Arts, Electrical Technician, and Refrigeration and Air Conditioning.

The diploma programmes offered include Building Technology, Automotive Technology, Electrical Technology, Business Management, and Early Childhood Education, as well as several collaborative programmes with Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM), such as Technology Management, Accounting, Property Management, and Computer Science. Additionally, KTYS offers a Foundation in Science programme, which results from a collaboration between the Yayasan Sabah Group and Universiti Malaysia Pahang (UMP). This year, KTYS has introduced a new diploma programme, Diploma in Islamic Studies, which welcomed its first cohort of students in August 2024.

All academic diploma programmes conducted at KTYS are approved and accredited by the Malaysian Qualification Agency (MQA), and the certificate skill programmes are conducted with the approval of the Department of Skills Development.
