The current pandemic has made the planet become far more digital than ever. The concept “work from home” has been a greatest phenomenon besides the “internet”, which has driven every employer to adapt.
“Research into Action” is a theme that addresses how the global workforce will be able to adapt and apply new ways to maintain and improve productivity.
The approaches taken by companies to ADAPT stems the concept of how they would apply methodologies and new processes to ensure improvement and competitiveness is maintained or improved.
This new norm of working would also drive the new requirements needed for the new workforce.
In summary, Research into action is to address the approaches companies are taking to drive the values and attributes for the new workforce in such changing environments.

Recent decades have seen increasing globalisation in higher education. This phenomenon has compelled Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) to develop various initiatives to not only strengthen existing partnerships but also venture into new potential collaborations. While partnerships are usually initiated between HEIs, foreign missions also play an important role in fostering ties between countries through trade, culture, and education, amongst others. In this webinar, we have invited representatives from foreign missions in Malaysia who will provide insights to their role in promoting bilateral relations, particularly sustainable partnerships between HEIs.
