Hairstyling courses under the Human Resources Ministry’s
Train-and-Place programme
A hair academy has offered places for Indians to pursue fully-funded
hairstyling courses under the Human Resources Ministry’s
Train-and-Place programme.
The course is initiated by Persatuan Pengusaha Jurugaya Rambut India
Malaysia (PPJ-RIM) and Akademi Antarabangsa Clipso (AAC).
AAC director V. Logonathan said that Indians should seize the
opportunity to learn a trade and start their own business.
The course to be conducted at AAC’s premises in Petaling Jaya Old Town
is opened to all Malaysian Indians with SPM qualification aged 17 and
above. Only 350 places are available.
“Response has been good. We have 100 applicants and 80 of them have
started their training,” Logonathan said.
Registration is opened until May 15. Trainees would be given an
incentive of RM500 per month and free accommodation.
Classes will be held five days a week and graduates will receive the
Malaysia Skills Certificate (SKM) Level 1 and 2 and AAC’s Diploma in
Art and Science of Hairstyling.
Application forms can be downloaded from the ministry’s website at
