11 YK Onboarding Sessions

YK Onboarding Session is an introductory session for new scholars to help them understand the vision and mission of YK as well as their roles and responsibilities as YK scholars. The session also serves as a platform for them to get to know the YK team and the other scholarship recipients in their intake, in a casual environment. The YK onboarding is usually conducted in batches. Shots taken during some of the sessions:

March 2017 On-boarding session with our June 2017 January 2017 new Watan scholars (UiTM) Session with our June 2017 With our new 2017 “Early Harvest” Scholars Bangladesh scholar With our Indonesian scholar Niswah July 2017 On-boarding session with our new Global and Watan scholars

YK Pre - Departure Briefing is a session developed by YK for the Khazanah Global scholars before they leave the country to pursue their studies either in the UK, US or Australia.

During the session, scholars will be briefed on their responsibilities as YK scholars, the expectations, emergency contact details, some survival tips, experience sharing and etc.

We are fortunate to have fellow alumni and the Board of Trustees to share their experiences as well as giving advice on how to max- imise the individual potentials to the YK scholars that will be studying abroad.

13 Yayasan Khazanah Premier Scholarship Programme (YKPSP)

YK Structured Leadership Programme which is dubbed as YK Premier Scholars Programme (YKPSP) was introduced in 2014. YKPSP has been designed to develop and build the core leadership competencies (YK3P) of the scholars using the 4-box learning mix approach which are; 1. Formal-Based Learning (FBL), 2. Community-Based Learning (CBL), 3. Self-Directed Learning (SDL) 4. Professional Experience (PE).

YKPSP forms an integral and pivotal part in YK scholarship Programme where each module is built meticulously and tailored to the core objective to ensure that we produce premier scholars.

14 YK Events

YK Events serve the purpose of Yayasan Khazanah in several folds, namely; engagement, scholar’s development and providing exposure to enhance their leadership skills. Apart from giving the scholars the hands-on experience as well as the knowledge of event management, YK Events also allow the scholars to interact with each other from different scholarship programs, with the YK Team and alternatively getting the scholars to be involved in community service. There were three main events that were held annually.

“YK Interactive Engagement Event— Business Initiative” 24th August 2017

17 Partners and leading organisations participated in tjis event. It’s our 2nd year with 80% returning partners and we hope for better turnout in 2018. This concept of engagement enables both scholars and recruiters to have a brief conversation to gather inter- est and knowledge between both parties. This session leads up to potential placement for participating scholars and opens up a lot of options. A “Speed Dating” concept throughout this events allows scholars to utilise their pitching, conversation and persua- sion skills and techniques which have been provided throughout their YKPSP modules.

One of the important aspects of M&M (Monitoring & Management of scholars) that YK focuses on is engagement. Face-to-face, one-on-one engagement is conducted at least once a year. Throughout the year, the Scholarship Managers continuously communicate with their respective scholars. The medium of communica- ~ SPECIAL INVITES / VISITS ~ tion varies from WhatsApp group, email, Videocon or telephone call. The discussion during engagement focuses on scholars’ academic performance, co-curricular activities, opportunities as a student in their respective schools or universities as well as their general well-being.
