Trainocate Malaysia Marks a Milestone with the Grand Opening of Its Second Training Center.
On October 25, 2024, Trainocate Malaysia hit a major milestone, opening its second training center at the INC in KLEC Mall. The vibe was electric – years of hustle, vision, and teamwork all coming together for this big moment. From top execs and industry insiders to our amazing clients and partners, everyone showed up to celebrate how far we’ve come and to get a glimpse of what’s next in Malaysia’s technology education scene.
The session kicked off with an inspiring speech from Ruby Kaur, Managing Director of Trainocate Malaysia, who took the audience on a trip through the company’s incredible transformation. Ruby opened by reflecting on Trainocate’s humble beginnings, back when it was still known as Global Knowledge (GK) and facing tough times in 2014, with major losses and an uncertain future ahead.
She explained that Trainocate’s growth story wasn’t just about bouncing back financially—it was about a complete overhaul and cultural reset.
She highlighted the game-changing decision in 2017 to rebrand, a bold move led by President Mr. Ozawa’s vision. From those early struggles, Trainocate evolved into a resilient and innovative training provider, embracing both in-person and online formats—something that became especially vital during the pandemic. Ruby credited this journey to the relentless dedication of the Trainocate team, strong partnerships, and the loyalty of their customers.
With Ruby’s speech setting the stage, the audience got a glimpse into Trainocate Malaysia’s growth journey, highlighting how the organization tackled numerous challenges while staying true to its mission of delivering top-notch training. Ruby emphasized the company’s commitment to understanding and meeting customer needs by offering a thoughtful mix of traditional in-person and virtual learning options.
As she noted, both formats are in high demand, especially as customers appreciate the unique focus and collaboration that in-person sessions bring—even in today’s digital age. This forward-looking approach has fueled Trainocate’s growth and led to the need for a larger, cutting-edge training space. The new center, equipped with state-of-the-art facilities, embodies Trainocate’s vision for future-focused training that keeps pace with the evolving workforce needs in Malaysia and beyond.
Keynote Sessions: Exploring the Role of AI in Today’s Workforce
The event’s keynotes gave attendees an up-close look at how AI is shaking up the workplace, with insights that were both eye-opening and refreshingly practical. Dr. Mohammed Al-Obaydee kicked things off with his talk, “Navigating the AI Landscape: From Generative Innovations to Workforce Evolution.”
He didn’t just talk tech—he broke down how AI, from tools like ChatGPT to advanced machine learning, is doing more than automating tasks; it’s driving creativity and rethinking entire industries. He urged businesses to approach AI responsibly, aligning it with their goals for real, meaningful change.
Next up, Darryl Ma brought his programmatic spin on AI in his session, “The Future of Work: AI’s Role in the Office Today.” Darryl showed how AI is transforming day-to-day work in ways that are both smart and actionable.
From upskilling to streamline workflows, he shared real-world examples that made it clear: embracing AI isn’t about replacing people, it’s about empowering them.
Both speakers drove home the idea that AI isn’t just a passing trend; it’s the new norm, reshaping work and requiring a new kind of readiness. For Trainocate Malaysia, this aligns perfectly with their mission to lead the charge in tech education, equipping businesses and individuals to confidently step into the AI-driven future.
Lucky Draws and Networking Opportunities
Adding some extra excitement to the day, Trainocate Malaysia spiced things up with five lucky draws, keeping everyone on their toes. Drawn by Trainocate’s own managers, each draw sent a lucky winner home with a fantastic prize, adding a fun twist that kept the energy high.
After the sessions wrapped up, attendees took full advantage of the chance to connect and mingle. The new training center, with its spacious and inviting layout, set the stage for some great networking—sparking conversations between industry pros, Trainocate’s loyal clients, and new faces alike. It was a lively atmosphere, with ideas and connections bouncing around the room as everyone enjoyed the relaxed vibe and shared excitement for what’s next.
The Bigger Picture: Trainocate’s Vision for Malaysia’s Digital Future
Ruby made it clear in her speech that the new training center is more than just a physical expansion; it represents a bold vision for the future. Trainocate Malaysia is committed to championing the country’s digitalization and tech advancement goals. Through initiatives like the Youth in Tech (YIT) program, we’re empowering young Malaysians with essential skills for the digital age. By collaborating with key players such as MCMC, MDEC, and local universities, Trainocate is playing a pivotal role in closing the talent gap, ensuring our youth are equipped for tomorrow’s opportunities. Each month, we host free webinars and training sessions aimed at inspiring interest in tech careers, perfectly aligning with Malaysia’s objective of cultivating a digitally skilled workforce.
At the heart of Trainocate’s mission lies our dedication to corporate social responsibility (CSR). Ruby emphasized that while we strive for technological growth and high customer satisfaction, our commitment to giving back to the community holds equal weight. Initiatives like Google Gemilang and our partnerships with the Selangor Youth Community are clear reflections of Trainocate’s commitment to social impact, ensuring that we’re not just building a skilled workforce, but also shaping a brighter future for Malaysia..
