Kuala Lumpur, April 3, 2026 — Digital Minister Gobind Singh Deo today announced the launch of the Oracle Skills Development Initiative (SDI), a major effort to equip 300,000 Malaysians with artificial intelligence (AI) and digital technology skills at no cost. The initiative, unveiled at Oracle AI Experience Live 2026, is a collaboration between Oracle Corporation and MyDIGITAL Corporation. It targets both students and working professionals, offering globally recognised certifications to boost employability and long-term career development. According to Gobind Singh Deo, the programme is designed to support Malaysia’s workforce transformation as the country accelerates its digital economy ambitions. “This initiative reflects our commitment to developing future-ready talent. By providing access to high-quality training and certification, we are ensuring Malaysians are well-prepared to compete in an increasingly digital and AI-driven global economy,” he said. Under the programme, participants will receive more than 200 hours of structured learning and certification pathways over a three-years period, with a targeted impact timeline leading up to 2029. The training will cover a wide range of in-demand technologies, including Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), OCI Generative AI, OCI Data Science, Oracle APEX, OCI DevOps, and OCI Security. Participants can access the programme free of charge through Oracle MyLearn, a comprehensive learning platform developed by Oracle University. Gobind emphasised that talent development and empowerment remain central to Malaysia’s aspiration of becoming an AI-driven nation by 2030. “Investing in people is key to achieving our national vision. Initiatives like SDI will play a vital role in building a skilled, resilient, and competitive workforce for the future,” he added. --Minutes MY / Igneseous Noris
