GYM

Going to the gym can be as natural to some as showering or eating. It’s a good feeling to walk out of the IPK College’s gym, at least a much better feeling than walking in. However, we need a good coach or trainer to guide us to use all the equipment provided at the gym.

Lucky for IPK College students, we invited former Mr Penang to train us during our gym sessions! We learned a lot from this muscular guy. We want our students to have confidence on themselves! Thus, going to gym is a good start.

IPK College always aims for a healthy lifestyle for students to maintain both their studies and their daily life. We are so happy to provide students with facilities and guide towards their better future in whatever career they choose to lead in future!

Penang International Food Festival (PIFF)

IPK College always strives the best for our students; we realize the importance of knowing our culture!

IPK College had the chance to visit the Penang International Food Festival (PIFF) to experience the rich history and tradition of Penang’s food. We are glad to bring our students to enjoy the great food served with the price of RM2 for every dish. This is a very affordable price for students to try almost every meal there.

Students finally had the hands-on experience of tasting the great food near IPK College!

WESAK DAY

IPK College students had the chance to visit Nandaka Vihara, the Buddhism Monastery. This is a charity event for Wesak day. It focuses on fund raising for free education & medical for the people in need. Students were so happy to volunteer in this event.

As known, volunteering increases self-confidence. You are doing good for others and the community, which provides a natural sense of accomplishment. Your role as a volunteer can also give you a sense of pride and identity. And the better you feel about yourself, the more likely you are to have a positive view of your life and future goals.

IPK College always encourages students to volunteer in this kind of charity event to allow them to connect to the community. Let’s hope we will get more chances to help and make the world a better place 

Visit to old folks home

Last Saturday, IPK College students volunteered to visit and do some charity works at the Permatang Tinggi Old Folks Home! Students organized a lot of fun activities to entertain the elderly that are staying there. Students also collected some amount of money to be donated to the elderly living there.

IPK College is proud to encourage students to involve more in charity works as it can bring happiness while helping those in needs.

Visit to Persatuan Kanak – Kanak Cacat

IPK College is had the chance to visit the visually impaired students yesterday! It was a great experience for students to understand and learn more about the lifestyle of. This program also aimed to show support to the needed students by visiting and helping them along by conducting the interactive games and fun activities.

This is a good program not only to motivate students but also to remind us to appreciate our god given perfections in life.

Blood donation

IPK College is very happy to organize and participate in the Blood Donation event last Saturday. Donating blood is good for the health of donors as well as those who need it. Donating blood can help in treating patients suffering from cancer, bleeding disorders, chronic anaemia associated with cancer, sickle cell anaemia, and other hereditary blood abnormalities. Not only that, it’s also beneficial to the donor, it helps to reduce the risk of heart and liver ailments caused by the iron overload in the body.

It’s very exciting for the students of IPK College to be given the chance to volunteer in conducting such a meaningful event. Remember, every blood donor is a hero.

Btec Award

IPK College as a multiple international award-winning college has again proven our credibility in achieving another milestone by being awarded two gold medals in Level 5 Higher National Diploma specializing in Finance and Accounting.

While ordinary students are completing their Level 4 diploma, these two IPK College’s students Mr. Teh Wei Chong and Ms. Leu Sze Ting have completed their Level 5 Higher National Diploma with flying colours.

IPK College always gives the best to the students that they are able to achieve this advancement in academic to be compared to other students. For instance, when other students are still completing their Level 4 of diploma, IPK College’s students have already completed their Level 5 of higher national diploma. This proves that IPK College students are always competitive and advance than others.

As such, IPK College also received Certificate of Appreciation from Pearson because we are wonderful for being helpful to people in progressing their lives through learning

IPK College personnel were proud to witness two amazing IPK College students being recognized for their outstanding achievements at an auspicious ceremony in Le’ Meridien Kuala Lumpur.

With that, IPK College would like to congratulate both Mr. Teh Wei Chong and Ms. Leu Sze Ting for getting awarded!

Taxation talks

IPK College always emphasizes on educating the students with the latest requirements of the market. As known, the Sales and Service Tax (SST) has now replaced the Goods and Service tax (GST). Kalyx Consultants has sent two of IPK College’s alumni Mr. Hadden Lim Han Hung and Mr. Tan Yu Seng the SST Consultants that are now working at Kalyx Consultants to give a talk on the implementation of the Sales and Service Tax (SST) at our college. The session was so informative and helpful as the speaker described in detail the rules and regulation of this new taxation system that has taken place in our country recently.

IPK College students have updated themselves on such changes and equipped themselves on the impact of this new taxation rules. IPK College is proud to be able to produce these successful students and having them to come back and share their knowledge with us. We hope this session has helped students to get a better understanding of the implementation of Sales and Service Tax (SST).

Car wash fundraiser

IPK College always promotes the culture of doing charitable activities apart from academic priorities. Doing charity works can change the lives of others and also can benefit the students as well.

This car wash fundraiser was held for seven days. The fund collected was donated to the Agape Home to help the orphanage living there. Students managed to collect an amount of money to be donated by having this car wash activity.

This is a great opportunity for students to learn soft skills which are apart from the conventional academic learning pathway such as teamwork, leadership, organizing and managing, social entrepreneurship and also to promote the culture of social responsibility.

We believe that these skills are impartial from their career. IPK College always provides the best for students!
