The implementation of tahfiz programme in polytechnics is aimed towards producing highly marketable graduates and skilled human capital in technical and vocational education (TVE). This programme is developed to integrate worldly and ukhrawi knowledge to produce professional huffaz who are skilled and competent, conforming to the needs of the ummah and the nation. In line with the current global development and demand, the curriculum for polytechnic’s tahfiz programme is developed in collaboration with Darul Quran (DQ) to produce dynamic and deductive semi-professional workforce. The combination of the core courses, elective courses and the institution’s compulsory courses becomes the essential components for the curriculum. Elements like the programme synopsis, programme overview, delivery methods, assessment methods and referencing, complement the main aspects of the programme proforma. Strategic approach to be considered in order to comply with the standard curriculum demand of tahfiz programme in TVET institutions; small number of students, lack of promotions, and limited number of trained lecturers are among the main challenges that need to be addressed in the future.
