 MyIX launches second intake for talent development programme

The Malaysia Internet Exchange (MyIX) has announced the second intake for its Talent Development Programme, a key component of its Corporate Social Responsibility efforts aimed at skilling Malaysians in telecommunications and internet infrastructure.

The programme, conducted in collaboration with Forward College, is designed to equip fresh graduates and early-career professionals with vital industry skills. Participants will gain knowledge in areas such as IP networks system operations and AI-driven traffic analysis, preparing them for roles in the rapidly evolving telco and data sectors.

MyIX chairman Chiew Kok Hin (pic) said that following the success of the first intake earlier this year, the association remains committed to nurturing Malaysia’s digital talent pool, addressing the growing demand for skilled professionals in the telco and data industries.

“At MyIX, we believe in giving back to the community by building a sustainable talent pipeline. This programme is our contribution to preparing Malaysians for the digital future, ensuring they have the knowledge and skills required to excel within our country’s fast-growing and evolving digital landscape,” he added.

“With the digital economy strengthening year by year, the demand for skilled professionals in the telco and internet sectors will only continue to grow. Through this programme, we aim to empower participants, giving them the tools they need to succeed,” Chiew said.

The programme, which is entirely free, offers a comprehensive seven-day training course focusing on critical areas such as IP Networks, system operations management, and emerging technologies like AI in traffic analysis and DDoS mitigation. Successful applicants will delve into the intricacies of modern telecommunications and internet infrastructure, including core components like IP Networks, which serve as the backbone for data transmission and communication, and System and Operations management, ensuring the efficient functioning of these networks.

Additionally, participants will learn about advanced topics like AI-driven traffic analysis and DDoS mitigation, equipping them with cutting-edge knowledge needed to excel in today’s telco and data industries.

Enrolling in the programme offers a pathway to career advancement through specialised knowledge in the telco and data industries, enhanced networking opportunities with professionals, and practical skills that can be immediately applied in the workplace. Participants also stand to benefit from personal and professional growth by mastering complex technologies and contributing to global connectivity, making them more valuable assets to their employers and positioning them for exciting job opportunities.

While the programme does not guarantee job placement, outstanding graduates will be highlighted to MyIX members such as Maxis, Telekom Malaysia, Celcom Digi, AIMS, TIME, U Mobile, and many more.

The upcoming intake will be held from 2 - 4 October and 7 - 10 October 2024 at the MyIX corporate headquarters located in Puchong, Selangor. For more information, please visit: https://myix.forward.edu.my/
