Work Based Learning (WBL) is a method learning that combines theoretical and practical learning simultaneously in real employment with the aim of to produce graduates who have high performance workability. WBL programs have been formally implemented in Malaysia since 2007 at Community college and Polytechnic. Among the problems faced by Polytechnics in implementing this learning method is the challenge of the bilateral relationship between polytechnics and industry that collaborates to train students. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to explore, understand and explain the implementation of WBL at Malaysian Polytechnic. The study focuses on three main aspects, namely implementation methods, problems in implementation and the root cause of the problem. Qualitative case study methodology was used and implemented at the Polytechnic Sultan Azlan Shah. Participants involved in this study were lecturers, industry employers and students. Data collection process has been implemented for 5 months using interview techniques, observation and documents analysis. The findings show that there are some constraints in the implementation of WBL in Polytechnic Sultan Azlan Shah. These constraints involve a low level of expertise in the WBL program among lecturers and employers, Polytechnic's bilateral and industrial relations problems, assessment problems, management problems and student admission rates for less favorable curriculum programs. Among the causes for the problem is that individuals involved with the WBL have less experience and knowledge than their implementation. Based on the findings of the study, a conceptual framework for the implementation of the WBL is recommended as a guide to the implementation of the WBL program in the Polytechnic.
