Abstract: The key concern of technical and vocational education and training (TVET) institutions is to generate graduates of high caliber. The TVET institutions endeavor to best serve the community and the nation. Being productive in their area of expertise will determine the extent to which TVET institutions can compete to provide the best education globally. Accordingly, academicians’ perceptions and personalities were assessed to identify the factors contributing to knowledge-sharing behavior (KSB). The academicians were selected from premier polytechnics in Malaysia through purposive sampling. Analysis was conducted with partial least square structural equation modelling. Resultantly, KSB reflected moderate variance whereas knowledge-sharing intention (KSI) had weak variance. The results suggested that KSI moderately influenced KSB. The academicians’ KSI positively influenced their KSB. Nevertheless, individual perception did not significantly affect academicians at KSB. The findings on Malaysian TVET academicians’ KSB can be a general benchmark for other technical and vocational institutions. Future researchers could focus on other individual factors that might influence KSB, such as religiosity.
