Rocket Academy, responding to the rising demand for tech talent in Malaysia, plans to train high-caliber software engineers. The academy, with experience in Singapore, aims to contribute to Malaysia’s tech community growth.
While offering a free coding course, Rocket Academy’s scholarship program provides a significant 70% discount on bootcamp fees for ten deserving Malaysian applicants, facilitating career switches into software engineering.
This initiative aligns with addressing the talent crunch and supporting Malaysia’s companies in hiring skilled professionals. The goal is to foster a thriving tech community and meet the growing demand
“More companies in Malaysia are looking to hire tech talent, leading to a talent crunch. Rocket Academy aims to address this, starting by training high-calibre software engineers here,” says Kai Yuan Neo, Chief Executive Officer of Rocket Academy.
“As Malaysia and Singapore have always been closely related, we hope the lessons we have learnt training tech talent in Singapore will also be relevant to training tech talent in Malaysia. Ultimately, our goal is to help foster a thriving tech community in Malaysia for the coming years.”
While Rocket Academy already has a free introductory coding course for beginners, its inclusivity and scholarship programme will provide a substantial 70% discount on their coding bootcamp course fees to ten worthy Malaysian applicants to help them change careers and become software engineers.
Through this, Rocket Academy aims to empower these deserving individuals in their educational and career switching journeys, which will also allow them to address the hiring demand for trained tech talent in Malaysia.
