Summary:Halal courses are important as the concept is comprehensive and applied to a wide scheme of products. Halal awareness among Muslims is continuously developed. Halal certification regulated by JAKIM is expanded to various schemes of products and services such as food premises, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, logistics, tourism, and many more. Therefore, Halal studies play a significant role preparing qualified human resources to serve the halal industry’s demand in Malaysia as well as the worldwide. The purpose of this study is to investigate motivational beliefs and self-regulated learning for halal-related courses among students of Halal programs in higher education institutions. Therefore, a quantitative survey was conducted. The sample of this study consists of one hundred and one Halal Management diploma students in a public university in Malaysia. This study found a high motivational belief and high self-efficacy in learning among students in this course. The data on self-regulated learning show that majority of the students can learn and be competitive to achieve their goals. Even the students get anxious while taking tests but they can handle the feeling very well. This paper suggests that the teaching and learning process must be planned and designed and be conducted in interesting ways to meet the objectives and to make students fully understand and enjoy the learning process.
