About Yayasan Peneraju Pendidikan Bumiputera  

Yayasan Peneraju Pendidikan Bumiputera (Yayasan Peneraju) is an initiative to strengthen the universal and continuous development of Bumiputera efforts. 

Among the mandates entrusted to Yayasan Peneraju include improving the quality, quantity and relevance of Bumiputera talents in line with Malaysia’s efforts to upgrade Malaysia to a high-income country through academic, TVET, professional, technology and specialist financing programs. 

 

Malaysia’s Digitalization Journey 

Malaysia has embarked on its digitalisation journey since 1996 with the introduction of the Multimedia Super Corridor. Through this initiative, the country has recorded some success stories, such as attracting domestic and foreign information and communication technology (ICT) companies to operate in specific economic zones.  

Doubling down on our strengths alone will no longer work in the future, as the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) and the rapid advancement of disruptive technologies including digital technology have shown the potential to significantly transform the economic landscape around the world. The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the wave of change in driving the rakyat, business and the government to adapt to digitalisation for their daily needs. Malaysia will lose out in the increasingly competitive global economy if we are not ready for change.  

MyDIGITAL has set the direction of digital economy and built the foundation to drive digitalisation across the nation. To realise the aspirations of MyDIGITAL, the Malaysia Digital Economy Blueprint is formulated as the action plan to outline the efforts and initiatives which will be implemented up to 2030.  

This Blueprint envisions Malaysia becoming the regional lead in digital economy and to achieve inclusive, responsible and sustainable socioeconomic development. Its three objectives are to encourage industry players to become creators, users and adopters of innovative business models, harness human capital to thrive in the digital economy and nurture an integrated ecosystem that allows society to embrace digital economy. 

 

Cultivating and developing Bumiputera talents to their highest potential across the nation.  

Labour work, especially positions that require higher skills set within the technology sector, is predicted to increase in demand in the next few years. This spike is likely in response to the growth and development of the Industrial Revolution (IR4.0) in Malaysia. The push of the technology sector forward back in 2018 as well as the introduction of the MyDIGITAL blueprint in 2021 became the starting point in the implementation of technology programs in a more focused manner. Yayasan Peneraju has seen taking a more proactive role in helping target the growth of labour force attain higher skills set.  

Yayasan Peneraju has introduced more than 4 sponsored programs within the technical field, both part time and full time, ever since its inception in 2012. These programmed are designed and curated for students on the entry level all the way up to the final year students as well as professional. The principal aim of these programmes are to help increase high skill employment through obtaining professional certifications from globally recognised technology accreditation bodies such as Fusionex, Microsoft, CompTIA+ and SAP. 

 

Trainocate Malaysia in partnership with Yayasan Peneraju Pendidikan Bumiputera, aims to accelerate the growth of the Bumiputera workforce as we journey into the future of mass digitalization in the country, and to ensure that they are prepared and equipped to innovate and adapt to the challenges that come with digital transformation exercises.  

Objectives: 

  • To increase the quality, quantity, and effectiveness of Bumiputera talent in line with the government’s efforts to drive Malaysia towards a high-income country through academic financing programs, vocational certification, professionals & specialists.
