Fast track with Henley-ICAEW Programme (HIP) The journey to becoming a chartered accountant involves more than just completing a degree in accountancy.

    THE STAR, THURSDAY 17 JUNE 2021 EDUCATION GUIDE Mathematical tools to the fore THE education sector, which includes universities, institutes and colleges, has undoubtedly been impacted by the Covid-19 pandem- ic. After the first movement control order was implemented in March last year, the industry turned to remote learning. Research sectors in universities were massively affected as well. Experimental data collection and computer simulations for research projects had to be put on hold as laboratories were closed, causing a delay in findings. But the contribution of research and technology to stop the spread of Covid-19 is praiseworthy.

    Penang’s Skills Situation: Concerted Actions Needed By Ng Kar Yong and Yap Jo-yee #17 23 JULY 2021 10, Brown Road, 10350 George Town Penang, Malaysia T +604 228 3306 F +604 226 7042 E [email protected] Penang’s Skills Situation: Concerted Actions Needed Ng Kar Yong (Statistician, Socioeconomics and Statistics Programme) and Yap Jo-yee (Analyst, Socioeconomics and Statistics Programme) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • Penang’s market for job vacancies is currently dominated by manufacturing, engineering, information and communications technology (ICT), as well as sales, marketing and business development specialisations. This reflects a high and growing need for technical and digital skills, complex thinking, and interpersonal competencies. • Fresh graduates have been disproportionately affected during the current downturn, compared to experienced workers. This has negative implications for lifetime employment outcomes, stemming from the combination of slowed job creation activity and falling proportions of entry-level vacancies. • The fields of study Penang’s fresh graduates possess are inconsistent with what employers require. There is also a distinct lack of hard and soft skills among job applicants. • While graduates from Kedah, Perak and Perlis help meet the labour demand from most of Penang’s key sectors, there remains a scarcity of ICT graduates across the entire northern region. • Addressing these challenges require effort from all stakeholders: a) Penang’s employers should tighten partnerships with education institutions, starting with those in the northern region, in terms of curriculum-planning and recruitment activities. b) Initiatives to improve graduate quality need to be accompanied by incentives for them to remain in Penang upon graduating. Both public and industrial actors play important and complementing roles in developing liveability standards in Penang.
