The SUSS Success Academy in Kuala Lumpur, a talent solutions and consulting firm, has been launched by the Singapore University of Social Sciences ( SUSS) and WiseNet Asia, a talent management and consulting firm. This will open up new learning and training opportunities for students in Singapore and Malaysia.
The Academy will serve as a key nexus for academic and industry lovers from both places, fostering alliances and grooming well-rounded potential leaders worthy of excelling and making positive contributions to society. It will be grounded on SUSS’s commitment to learning for life and creating cultural influence.
Through the Academy’s two different paths, Personal Success and Professional Success, SUSS may provide opportunities for students from SUSS and various Singapore pre-tertiary and secondary to collaborate with Malaysian students to learn and create original content. This will include a number of complete programs, including student exchanges and multidisciplinary global learning programs. Also, SUSS students will have the opportunity to work at the same location and work as interns.
Important efforts include:
Student Leadership Development in Social Sustainability: In relationship Belum Eco Resort, SUSS will utilize the hotel’s facilities to produce a place-based learning programme and experienced site, known as Camp R. A. I. S. E. This programme will help students learn about economic stewardship and green practices, eco-preneurship, and well-being and mindfulness strategies.
More than 80 SUSS student-athletes may host games and coaching sessions with Indonesian athletes from various sporting groups in order to enhance their sports and cultural ties with the country. Beyond its undergraduate emphasis, the Academy, anchored on SUSS ‘ skills in adult and workplace learning, will also provide its dual purpose of creating specialized training and development solutions for industry partners, organisations, and institutions.
The ISC is a credit-bearing course that provides a platform for students from Singapore and Malaysia to collaborate on ideas, test, and pivot their proposal in a practical setting. The first of these partnerships, with Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, gives Singaporean and Malaysian students the opportunity to study and explore business concepts that are related to sustainability.
Participants in the SUSS Ecopreneur Innovation Programme ( EIP ) made a study trip to Perak in July. The trip aimed to facilitate interactions between the ecopreneurs and local businesses, as well as key players in the startup ecosystem, to explore potential collaborations.  ,
To further advance its work and partnership in Perak, SUSS announced its MoU with Bonanza Educare and Perak Academy to promote knowledge exchange and innovation, internship opportunities, and co-design and co-delivery of experiential programmes.
According to the university, over the past two years, more than 60 SUSS students have engaged in collaborative learning with their Malaysian counterparts. In order to broaden intercultural skills, this initiative, in collaboration with Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman and Universiti Sains Malaysia, aims to train students to become responsible and capable citizens of a diverse and inclusive world.
SUSS has also collaborated with the Ong Teng Cheong Labour Leadership Institute and the SUSS Center for Applied Research to create specialized training programs for union leaders in the transportation industry. These programmes focus on skills development and are being implemented in Kuala Lumpur, Manila, and India.
The SUSS Success Academy in Kuala Lumpur was inaugurated by Professor Tan Tai Yong, the organization’s president, as it was referred to as” Our collaborative spirit and commitment to providing our students and businesses with meaningful opportunities.” Our partnership with WiseNet Asia will give students in both countries a variety of opportunities to advance their mindsets and skills as part of our goal to be a university that inspires learning for life and has an impact on lives. The beneficial effects that this will have on both countries are exciting to us.
Meanwhile, Wesley Hui, founder of WiseNet Asia Pte Ltd, said:” The collaboration with SUSS is a pivotal step towards shaping the future of young talents, providing them with opportunities for early-stage development. It will allow us to cultivate and mentor young executives, equipping them to thrive in a dynamic world driven by innovation, cutting-edge technologies, and groundbreaking discoveries”.
