'SIMPLE' (Student Learning Improvement Programme) was developed to motivate and to assist civil engineering students especially the students who failed civil engineering subjects and with CGPA of less than 2.3. As part of the programme, a workshop was organised by the Faculty of Civil Engineering, UiTM Pahang (FCE) by focusing on students who failed civil engineering subjects in order to enhance their understanding of the subjects and as a preparation for the coming [mal examination. This workshop was divided into four (4) divisions or sub-disciplines namely Structural and Materials, Construction, Business and Project Management, Geotechnical and Highway Engineering as well as Water Resources and Environmental System. Generally, the nature of civil engineering subjects is descriptive based, analysis-based, project-based and laboratory-based. Thus, the module of the workshop was prepared by focusing on the method of approaching the students according to the nature of the subjects, answering techniques for final examination and identification of common mistakes. Facilitators were selected among FCE lecturers. A survey was done to assess the success of SIMPLE workshop and to identify causes of subject failure.
