KUALA
LUMPUR, Malaysia, June 24,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Emeritus, the global leader in
making high-quality education accessible and affordable to
individuals, companies, and governments around the world, is proud
to announce its participation as a partner at the National Training
Week (NTW) 2024. The National Training Week 2024 is organised by
the Human Resources Development Corporation (HRD Corp), an agency
under the purview of the Ministry of Human Resources Malaysia, from
June 24-30, 2024, to empower the

Malaysians demonstrate a strong desire to continuously learn and
upskill, with every 1 in 2 Malaysians driven to upskill for job
security and increased confidence, as per the 'Workmonitor 2024'
report by Randstad Malaysia. In line with this growing demand
across citizens, National Training Week has rapidly become a
cornerstone of Malaysia's efforts

array of free training programs. The inaugural NTW exceeded
expectations by delivering over 21,000 free training courses to
more than 129,000 Malaysians, totaling over 503,000 training hours.
Building on this success, NTW 2024 aims to enroll 150,000
participants across the country – from students to working
professionals to senior citizens – focusing on life skills, future
skills, creativity and innovation, financial literacy, and
sustainable development.

Through its participation in NTW 2024, Emeritus aims to bolster
Malaysia's initiatives to
strengthen the economy, aligning with the national goals of Madani
Economy Framework – a set of values set to embody Malaysia's economic growth for the next
decade, and the 12th Malaysia Plan (RMK12). Introduced
by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar
Ibrahim, Madani Economy Framework includes initiatives to
enhance Malaysia's economic
growth, promote investments, globalise local businesses and attract
international investors. As the nation pursues new areas of growth
in high-tech sectors, Artificial Intelligence (AI), energy
transition and the green economy, Emeritus is closely working with
the government, government-linked agencies, Fortune 1000 companies
and public-listed companies in Malaysia to ensure that the nation has enough
skilled workforce for the areas in focus.
Speaking on the Emeritus's participation in National Training
Week, Ts. Roslinda Abu Bakar,
Regional Director, Emeritus Malaysia, said, "We are
delighted to debut as a participant at the National Training Week
2024 with HRD Corp. Our participation in NTW 2024 underscores this
commitment to developing Malaysia's current and future workforce. This
collaboration presents a remarkable opportunity to equip Malaysians
with the skills they need to thrive in the ever-evolving job
market, harnessing talents to drive the nation's high-income
transformational agenda. It also aligns perfectly with our mission
to develop the future talent of Malaysia and contribute to the Malaysia Shared
Prosperity Vision 2030. We are confident that Emeritus Insights
will empower Malaysians to pursue their career aspirations and
contribute to Malaysia's economic
growth."
