KOLEJ ITA is a unique Higher Learning Institute, providing a holistic multi -level approach to education that will cater for the general education needs of students at all levels, from preliminary studies to postgraduate degrees in various disciplines at all levels. Kolej ITA began as Institute Tinggi Abadi in 1999 in response to the increasing demand in the Sibu area for higher education. Established on one storey shoplot, it focused on programmes in Accounting. In the years that followed, the Institute grew rapidly and expanded the range of courses offered. In 2004, the Institute was relocated to a Sibu bowling centre and 2007 we moved to our current location at Lorong Chew Siik Hiong which is behind Rejang Medical Centre.

By 2007, the Institute grew to 10 shoplots. We kicked off with Diploma in Nursing, next, Diploma in Physiotherapy, then, Diploma in Medical Assistant and finally Diploma in Medical Laboratory Technology and in 2019 we start a short course (3 month course) that is Certificate in Patient Care Assistance (PCA).
