ZenWeb designed and built the VSB Academy website, an English and Bahasa Malaysia site for a VTCT (UK) culinary training centre in Sungai Buloh, Shah Alam.
VSB Academy is a VTCT (UK) approved training centre in Sungai Buloh, Shah Alam, set up in 2022. It runs a 16-month Level 2 Diploma in Professional Cookery, a UK qualification. Students spend their first two months on kitchen fundamentals, then move into industry placement with partner F&B businesses until they finish.
The academy is built for young people who want a kitchen career but don't fit the usual academic route. It asks for no formal qualifications, takes students from age 17, and especially encourages applicants from B40 communities. New intakes open every month.
They want to know what they will learn, how long it takes and whether they qualify. The site answers all three before they apply.
Many parents want to see the kitchen and meet the instructors first. The site gives them visiting hours, a map and a way to book a visit.
F&B operators, NGOs and companies can ask about placements, sponsorship or CSR work through their own enquiry option.

The home page leads with a full-width photo of students cooking and a short promise. A scrolling strip repeats the key facts, then the page explains the gap the academy fills in Malaysia's F&B industry before it introduces the programme.
The Programme page walks through the course in order: the three stages of the diploma, then all 11 modules, from kitchen safety and food hygiene to breadmaking, desserts and teamwork. Entry requirements sit in one clear block so applicants can check whether they qualify.
The site runs in Bahasa Malaysia as well as English, switched from the header. The BM home page carries the same sections, photos and buttons as the English one, so families can read about the course in the language they prefer.
Many young applicants browse on their phones. On mobile, the kitchen photo, the main button and the key facts stay at the top, and the programme sections stack into one easy scroll.

Choosing a diploma is rarely the student's decision alone. Parents want to visit the kitchen, and employers want to hear about placements. Giving each group its own path means nobody reads a generic page meant for someone else. The Bahasa Malaysia version lets families read about the programme in the language they are most comfortable with.
