The Importance Of Logistic Programs And Competency In Logistic Education In Malaysia

This research discusses the role of competency in Malaysian logistics education. Local logistics practitioners make up the industry. Logistics management is the process of planning, implementing, and controlling the flow of goods, services, and information from the point of origin to the point of use. One of the study's main goals is to obtain local logistics practitioners' perspectives on supply chain management. Despite the government's full support, Malaysia's logistics industry lags behind developed nations. The industry's involvement of logistics graduates has fallen short of practitioners' expectations. The study's goals were to develop the local logistics industry and produce more globally competitive graduates. In order to develop a globally competitive logistics industry, it is necessary to identify critical knowledge. The study needs to look into the courses offered by Malaysian universities. This component defines the skills required of Malaysian undergraduate students. The study's findings should help make the global logistics industry more competitive and sustainable by increasing value-added activities, expanding the industry's player base, and meeting practitioners' needs. To meet future education needs, academic logistics must be more proactive.
