Since the establishment of the first English-medium school in Malaya in 1816, British colonialism had transformed Penang’s education system. Today, colleges in Penang have a long history of conducting programmes in English.

Command of the English language is a prerequisite. If you need help to improve your English language skills, there are several courses specifically designed to prepare you. Short-term courses tailored for specific industries such as tourism, IT and business can also be arranged by request. Contact for more information.
