In the MCAST website section – How to Apply Online … https://mcast.edu.mt/how-to-apply-online-2/ – one will find guides and resources intended to further facilitate online applications.
All residents in Malta bearing a Maltese ID Document, are expected to submit their online application after they would have created their MCAST CMIS account/profile (combined process at one go) using their active and valid EID – credentials for which may be obtained from the Identita’ Agency. Only in exceptional circumstances where it is clearly evidenced that the applicant is not entitled to an EID, will a different channel of application be utilised – upon clear guidance by MCAST Admissions and Records Department (ARD).
The Online Application on the MCAST Admissions Portal, is made up of the following online pages:
i. Personal details as pushed from the applicant’s Maltese EID, being the only source of validation – this first page is totally dependent on Identita’ Agency, rather than within MCAST’s control.
ii. Section which allows applicants to upload clear and crisp scans of all Certificates / Qualification documents (full pages thereof) as are required for vetting process to be possible.
iii. General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) page: all must fill this page attentively… without which the application cannot be submitted
iv. Choosing the Course Title one would be applying for
The creation of one’s account / profile on MCAST CMIS – using EID – is only done once … at the very first time the applicant will be coming into the MCAST CMIS to submit a first application (none done before). Once the applicant’s account/profile is set up and validated, whenever future occasions come up wherein the applicant would be applying for another course, the process is very simple especially since it will only entail confirmations of GDPR consents and the last application page.
