INSTEP Discover & Explore Carnival Bridges Communities: A PETRONAS’ 50th Celebration!

Discover & Explore INSTEP Carnival was a carnival held to welcome the local community, university students, trainees, stakeholders, and family members to give them a deep look into INSTEP as the preferred technical learning solutions partner.
