According to Azmi, ESnet Academy has trained over 600 students under their Malaysian Skills Certificate programme. With the joint venture, students of the academy are now able to pursue a degree in the automotive field.

“Our students will be given the opportunity to further their studies at DRB-HICOM University of Automotive Malaysia in Pekan Pahang,” said Azmi after the ceremony.

ESnet Academy has given RM500,000 worth of scholarships to five charitable organisations to sponsor the tuition fees of students in need.
