Empowerment of Training and Education at the Institute of Malaysian Army Training and Islamic Understanding (ILMI ATM): An Analysis

Training and education based on Islamic values are very important to help members of the Malaysian Armed Forces have the correct understanding and can practice Islamic teachings in their daily lives. Excellent personalities, such as faith, trust, and integrity, are the effects that arise from balanced spiritual and physical education. This study aims to examine the empowerment initiatives that have been and are being carried out to strengthen training modules, educational curricula, and teaching approaches that are more dynamic and relevant to current needs. This initial focus focuses on the training and education management structure at ILMI and the training and education concepts implemented. This study uses qualitative methods, namely library analysis, document analysis, and observation. This article is hoped to provide an initial overview of the need for improvement and to formulate effective strategies in empowering this institution so that it remains relevant in producing military personnel who are integrity-based, disciplined, and have a strong Muslim identity.
