A dramatic increment in population of senior citizens had caused Malaysia to be expected to reach an aging society starting year 2018 and become an aged nation in 2035 in which 15% of the citizens aged 60 and above. However, Malaysia is still lagging behind in the aspect of providing service delivery for the elderly. Thus, taking the role as the guardian of the nation, UKM is stepping up in sharing its innovation and best practices of gerontology social work courses in providing quality senior citizen care service delivery. This study aimed to explore the application of vocational training of senior citizens' care in a gerontology social work course at UKM. This study used a qualitative approach which involved nine respondents from Rumah Ehsan Kuala Kubu Bahru who had been selected via purposeful sampling. Data collected through in-depth interview with respondents were analyzed via verbatim from the constructed transcripts. The results were then divided into two parts which are: i) impact on students attending vocational training of senior citizens in UKM and ii) impact on companies receiving UKM students as apprentices in providing senior care services. This course provides youth with the knowledge, theory, practical and soft skills needed in systematically caring for senior citizen. This experience and knowledge can be extended in families, communities as well as in career in caring elderly people with disabilities. This study suggested that this course can be included in the list of the UKM Citra courses that allow Level 3 Certificate of Malaysia (SKM) obtainment as a value-added and wider student engagement across fields and faculties. Engagement of UKM-KARIER serves as an effective bridging between students and industry players for career and industry linkages matching. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
