English Abstract

The education in Malaysia is on the right way to be one of the best education systems in the world.

The goal is to make the Malaysian education in centre of the global map by enhancing the academic excellence; it’s one of 2020 plan in Malaysia that has been made by Mahathir Mohammad in 1991.

That plan focuses on finance and banking, biotechnology, information and communication technology (ICT), information technology (IT), multimedia content development, advanced manufacturing and industrial design.

Within short time Malaysia has now more than 50 universities (public and private).

However, all of these universities use the e-government to connect with ministry of higher education, but this plan will attain success in only one university, it won’t be shared with others.

Our case study is APEX (Accelerated Program for Excellence) that has been used in UniversitiSains Malaysia (USM) in 2008.This idea was focused only on one university in Malaysia, because there is no sharing for knowledge between Malaysian universities.

This paper create a framework that uses data warehouse platform to merge the universities’ databases in one common warehouse with e-government Technologies, which increases sharing information among the university’s department itself and with other universities’ departments.
