The signing of the Letter of Intent marks another milestone in CMC’s efforts to establish international partnerships and collaborations with higher education institutions.

CMC has been actively pursuing internationalization initiatives to provide its students and members of the CTE faculty with opportunities for study abroad, international internships, and cultural exchange programs. These initiatives aim to equip students with intercultural competence, language skills, and exposure to different perspectives and ways of life to help them succeed in today’s globalized world.

CMC recognizes the importance of promoting international peace and understanding through its internationalization initiatives. By encouraging cross-cultural dialogue and collaboration among students and faculty, CMC is fostering a more peaceful and interconnected world.

Additionally, CMC’s efforts to bring a global perspective to its community through hosting international scholars, conferences, and events are enriching its curriculum, research initiatives, and community engagement efforts. The signing of the Letter of Intent with UiTM is a testament to CMC’s commitment to intensifying its internationalization initiatives and establishing new partnerships and collaborations with higher education institutions.

These efforts will help CMC provide its CTE students with a well-rounded education that prepares them for success in today’s globalized world while contributing to a more interconnected, peaceful, and prosperous future for all.
