This strategic expansion marks a significant milestone in the Academy’s mission to develop a skilled healthcare workforce across the region.\n\nCSM Academy Malaysia will begin operations by offering a suite of short healthcare courses that have been widely delivered and well-received in Singapore. These include highly sought-after programmes such as the Clinic Assistant Series Course, Phlebotomy Course, and Caregivers Course, among others. These short courses are designed to equip learners with practical, job-ready skills to meet immediate and growing industry demand.\n\nFollowing its initial offerings, CSM Academy Malaysia will progressively introduce the Academy’s full portfolio of programmes — spanning both its core healthcare qualifications and complementary disciplines such as Tourism and Hospitality. This phased roll-out is aimed at ensuring a high-quality, consistent learning experience aligned with the institution’s established standards in Singapore.\n\nLater in 2026, the JB branch will launch its comprehensive healthcare diploma programmes, including the Diploma in Healthcare Management and the Diploma in Individual Support (Aging & Disability). These qualifications will play a significant role in developing competent caregivers and healthcare professionals to support the rapidly expanding needs of the global aging population.\n\n“Expanding into Johor Bahru allows us to extend our commitment to quality healthcare education beyond Singapore,” said Lynn Chow, Chief Executive Officer of CSM Academy International. “Malaysia, like many countries, is experiencing a strong demand for trained caregivers and healthcare support professionals. Our programmes are designed to equip learners with skills that are relevant, practical, and future-focused.”\n\nThe establishment of CSM Academy Malaysia underscores the Academy’s ongoing dedication to cultivating capable healthcare workers who can contribute meaningfully to communities across Southeast Asia and beyond.\n\nAbout CSM Academy International\nEstablished in 2005, CSM Academy International is a Singapore-based private education institution specializing in healthcare education and related disciplines. It is ERF-registered with SkillsFuture Singapore (SSG) and holds the EduTrust accreditation, reflecting its commitment to high standards in academic delivery and student services.\n\nFor media enquiries, please contact:\nAllan Lee\nChief Operating Officer\nCSM Academy International\nTel: +65 6296 2962\nEmail: allan@csmacademy.edu.sg\n\nJewris Ng\nDigital Marketing\nCSM Academy International\nTel: +65 6296 2962\nEmail: jewris@csmacademy.edu.sg",null,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.sanity.io\u002Fimages\u002Fl7otvznt\u002Fproduction\u002Fe38f9df5a36b4977d34829a5e16244b946d508bf-2048x2048.jpg","2025-12-04T10:04:00.000Z","csm-academy-international-to-open-new-branch-in-johor-bahru-malaysia","CSM Academy International to Open New Branch in Johor Bahru, Malaysia",1786076936593]
