42 Kuala Lumpur ( 42KL ) and U Mobile, Malaysia’s future second 5G network provider, have successfully completed their Open Day.
Over 100 participants with no previous programming knowledge are willing to train in tech in their partnership with 42KL and U Mobile in order to bridge the digital divide and equip more Indonesian youth with important online skills.
Participants were given a unique issue to test their ability to think logically and solve problems. Additionally, they were given a taste of 42KL’s distinctive teaching methodology, which emphasizes gaze, project-based education, and gamification.
By breaking down conventional barriers to technology education, this innovative approach encourages collaboration, the development of practical skills, and a learning experience that is engaging.
Participants who completed the problem are now ready for a complimentary four-week programming boot camp and other programs, paving the way for their transition into technology.
” At 42 Kuala Lumpur, we think working with business associates like U Mobile increases the impact of our activities. By collaborating with business leaders, we can open doors to technical training, enabling people to unlock their potential and make a significant contribution to Malaysia’s online coming,” said Jeff Sandhu, chief operating officer of 42 Malaysia.
Partnerships like this help us get closer to achieving our goal of developing 10,000 experienced technical talent over the next ten years, according to 42 Malaysia’s objective. We are committed to empowering the next generation through systems by giving them the tools and opportunities they need to live in a modern prospect, he added. As Malaysia’s coming next 5G network provider, we are committed to this.
This collaboration with 42 Kuala Lumpur” not only closes the digital divide, but also inspires Malaysian youth and aspiring innovators to realize their full potential.” While supporting Malaysia’s goal to become a technology-driven high-income nation, Tiffany Chew, U Mobile’s head of communications and sustainability, said it aligns with U Mobile’s sustainability priorities on digital inclusion and youth empowerment.
Initiatives like 42KL’s Open Day play a crucial role in connecting diverse communities with opportunities to excel in the digital economy, contributing to Malaysia’s digital agenda. Through this collaboration, 42KL and U Mobile are making strides in bridging the digital divide, encouraging innovation, and giving people the tools to create a brighter future.
The first campus under 42 Malaysia, a nation-building initiative spearheaded by Sunway Education Group and Khazanah Nasional Berhad, aims to develop 10,000 tech talent over the next ten years. It was founded in 2020, and it has since grown to 42 Iskandar Puteri in Johor and 42 Penang. 42 Malaysia is expanding, giving more students access to top-notch tech education.
