Tilawah Entry Test
1. LEADERSHIP AND TRAINING UNIT A. Training Programme Leadership and Training Unit, Student Development Department is responsible for managing two types of training, compulsory and non-compulsory training programmes. Compulsory training refers to the programmes that all CFS students must attend. It includes Fardu Ain Classes, Study Circle, Nurturing the Khalifah Programme and Innovative Leadership and Management Programme (ILM). Non-compulsory training consists of programmes conducted by the Unit to enhance various skills such as leadership, management and problem solving skills.
COMPULSORY TRAINING PROGRAMMES i) Tilawah Al-Qur’an Classes
Undoubtedly, the Qur’an needs serious attention by Muslims, particularly students of Islamic institutions such as the Centre for Foundation Studies of the International Islamic

ILM (STARS)
Fardu ‘Ain / Study Circle 1 (0.5 Credit)
Study Circle 2 (Main Campus)
In view of this, the Centre for Foundation Studies, through the Student Development Department, organizes Tilawah AlQur’an classes for students who are poor in their knowledge of Qur’anic reading ability.
In order to identify and classify the students, all students are required to sit for the Tilawah Entry Test (TEnT) conducted during Ta’aruf week. Students who fail this test are required to register for Tilawah classes and attendance is compulsory. The classes are conducted by Assistant Religious Officers under the supervision of the Leadership and Training Unit. Students have to attend classes once a week for 10 weeks per semester. The classes are from Monday to Friday between 8.00 am and 5.00 pm. At the end of the semester, a centralized examination is conducted for the students.
The marks of the final test and attendance are incorporated in the academic transcript.
ii) Study Circle Programme ‘Study Circle’ in the International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM) context refers to a group of students who co-operate very closely among themselves in understanding and practicing Islamic teachings.
Allah (s.w.t) says: “Help ye one another in righteousness and piety, But help ye not one another in sin and rancor: Fear Allah for Allah is strict in punishment” (Al Maidah: 2)
The fundamental reason for institutionalizing the Study Circle is to fulfill the aims and objectives of Islamic education. It is hoped that the Study Circle activities are able to provide conducive environment for internalizing Islamic teachings. Study Circle is compulsory for all students who have passed the Tilawah Entrance Test (TEnT). Study Circle group is led by a facilitator who has been selected and trained by the unit.
The general objectives of the Study Circle are: a) to explain proper ways of understanding Islam
b)
to develop right and comprehensive ways of understanding Islam c) to strengthen the spirit of being constantly committed to Islamic teachings for the purpose of practicing those teachings among individuals, family, community and society at large. The specific objectives of the Study Circle are: a) to increase self-awareness b) to improve interpersonal relationships and communication skills c) to build brotherly ties among group members d) to foster acceptance of oneself and others.
iii) Ibadah Camp
One of the main goals of Islamic education at the International Islamic University Malaysia is to produce integrated and holistic persons who are well-balanced in terms of academic achievement, professional competence as well as character development. We believe that this type of generation - a generation with comprehensive leadership qualities - will be able to undertake the reconstruction and revival of the Ummah.
The Ibadah Camp is a compulsory programme for all students of the Centre for Foundation Studies, International Islamic University Malaysia that aims to develop leadership qualities appropriate for the contemporary and future conditions. It is hoped that Ibadah Camp will give Foundation students the understanding of qualities of leadership required for plural society in the future. The performance of the students is evaluated and incorporated into the Student Activity Record System (STARS). Objectives: 1. To prepare well-rounded knowledgeable student with good Akhlaq. 2. To prepare students with quality of leadership and relevant skills.

To enable students to learn from experienced leaders about management techniques B. Speech and Interpersonal Communication Enhancement (SPICE) Programme In addition to academic excellence, the primary vision and mission of a tertiary education institution also aims at producing future leaders of the society. IIUM embraces and celebrates this idea - the establishment of the SPICE programme is yet another manifestation of this. After having directed many resources and much energy into ensuring its continued participation in debating tournaments, local and international, the University realizes, quite rightly, the benefits its students stand to gain from being well-equipped with communicative skills that are coupled with and complemented by a culture of knowledge-seeking and critical thinking. Whilst the University Debating Associations are avenues of training for competitive debating, the SPICE programme is a forum that provides the student mass in general an attractive and convenient alternative for acquiring communicative skills so necessary for students’ successful venture into positions of leadership. The Speech and Interpersonal Communication Enhancement (SPICE) programme is established with the following objectives: 1. to instill within students a degree of confidence to speak and project ideas 2. to equip students with basic communicative skills akin to the skills acquired by varsity public speaking and debating competitors
2.1.2 Academic-based Society (according to student’s programme)
