Perak – Forest Interactive kicked off its first CSR initiative for the year and is proud to have joined forces with Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation Sdn. Bhd. (MDEC) once again on the latest Mydigitalmaker initiative, the Digital Tech Career Awareness Programme. The programme was built in partnership with the Ministry of Education (MoE) as well and was specifically designed to encourage Malaysian youth to pursue tertiary courses related to digital technology.
Targeted among school leavers as well as matriculation, pre-university and TVET students, the one day programme was held in Kolej Matrikulasi Perak (KMP), Gopeng and was part of the on-going Digital Tech Career Awareness Roadshow which ran from January to March 2017. More than 250 bright-eyed and bushy-tailed students eagerly participated and learned about the latest career choices in the Tech industry.
“Through collaboration with MDEC in programs such as Mydigitalmaker Digital Tech Career Awareness Programme, we are taking action not only to address evident skills shortages but to also engage Malaysian’s youth in the promising field of digital technology – inspiring young Malaysians toward education and careers in Digital.” said Johary Mustapha, Founder and CEO of Forest Interactive.
