Abstract
The development of Malaysia's social and economic capital depends on the younger generation as a result of the country's education system. Education is also the trigger for creativity and the generator of innovation that equips the younger generation with the skills needed to compete in the job market and enable overall economic development. In this regard, in the national education system, teachers play a role as human builders to produce a younger generation in meeting the needs of the ethical industry revolution 4.0 (IR 4.0). Thus, a quantitative study was conducted on final year students who took TVET education programs at IPTAs in Malaysia to review the readiness and knowledge of the soft skills of future TVET teachers to meet the challenges of the Industrial Revolution 4.0. A set of questionnaires containing 62 items including demographics of respondents using 5 Likert scales was constructed using the Google Form application and distributed to a total of 175 respondents. The findings of the study were analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) Version 20 software to identify the mean, standard deviation, and Pearson’s correlation coefficient. Overall, it was found that the level of readiness and acceptance of students towards IR 4.0 is still at a moderate level and there is a significant relationship between the level of students' knowledge of soft skills with the readiness of prospective TVET teachers to face the challenges of the Industrial Revolution 4.0.
