The sessions were part of the Malaysian Technical Cooperation Programme (MTCP) which advocates the sharing of development experiences and expertise with other developing countries through technical cooperation programmes. Participants were from Algeria, Cambodia, Ghana, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Thailand, Turkmenistan, Uganda, Uzbekistan and Zambia.
INSTEP is supporting the Malaysian Government’s commitment to promote regional and technical cooperation amongst developing countries as well as nurture collective self-reliance of the global South. Since the inception of MTCP in 1980, participants from 144 countries have benefited from various capacity building programmes offered under the MTCP.
Held in March and April 2021, the MTCP-INSTEP programme sought to encourage strategic conversations amongst the industry players on ways to develop technical talents in their localities. Topics related to training, education and localisation, particularly in advancing homegrown talents and capability framework were addressed through virtual discussions and presentations.
Participants were exposed to INSTEP’s current initiatives in talent development since its establishment in 1981, and were able to gain insights into how it navigates efforts to connect talents to technical competencies with a goal to enrich the global energy workforce.
The highlight of this training course was an engagement session with INSTEP’s leaders which enabled participants to understand the on-going initiatives and stumbling blocks affecting the oil and gas industry in Malaysia with regards to Human Capital Development.
