| Summary: | Our current education approach has evolved towards developing and equipping students with relevant skills such as creative and innovative thinking in finding solutions to any given problems. Due to unpredictable future challenges, the UN 2030 agenda of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) has called to action to end poverty, protect the planet, improve lives and focus on the need emphasis of Quality Education in Goal 4. Having quality education means having good educators whose role is crucial in preparing the new generations of students with prospective work skills. Conventionally, educators have the tendency of conducting laboratory class based on lab facilitator's instruction and guidance. In addition, there is no standardize approach on the grading scheme on laboratory report and practical activities been developed. Therefore, this study has developed a framework that connects the SDGs with based learning approaches in education (OBE) and enables student's performance been measured according to course outcomes (COs) and programme outcomes (POs). The OBE- SDGs related adoption has been applied to guide educators to grade students according to the appropriate level of task. Thus, this paper presents an overview framework of Open-ended Laboratory (OEL) for OBE-SDGs implementation in the Faculty of Civil Engineering, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam. In addition, this paper describes the OEL elements in the form of rubric assessment and attainment based on the outline of POs for laboratory report and practical activities that allow continuously monitoring aligned with the aim to achieve global sustainable development. © 2022 American Institute of Physics Inc..
