On 16 October 2019, the Asia Pacific Institute for Events Management (APIEM) announced that the Event Management Lecturers at the School of Hospitality, Tourism and Events (SHTE) are certified as Event Management Tutors. This certification is provided to event management academics who have demonstrated competence in teaching at an international standard in the areas of preparing the event, planning the event, organizing the event and managing the event. This Certified Event Management Tutor Qualification has been awarded to other academics within the region, but we are the only ones in Malaysia to receive such honour!
