The company also announced that it is taking steps to list on the NASDAQ as part of its vision to become the world’s primary AI-powered global Learning Hub.
KUALA LUMPUR, 15 June 2024 — The power of accessible education – especially as it pertains to corporate learning and development (L&D) – continues to be a major focus for businesses. In fact, according to the LinkedIn Executive Confidence Index, 90% of executives worldwide aim to either increase or maintain their investment in L&D throughout the rest of the year. For global online learning platform ReSkills, the triumphant celebration of its 4th anniversary only serves to highlight how significant its mission to make education affordable & accessible to anyone, anywhere, continues to be.
The anniversary celebration was held at the One World Hotel, Bandar Utama, on 15th June 2024, with 700 attendees – including but not limited to team members, stakeholders, partners, representatives from the USA & Latin American markets, VIPs from the states, government agencies, and corporate representatives, country partners, association officers, coaches, friends and family – present for the unveiling of ReSkills’ ambitious 5-year roadmap for 2024 – 2028.
Key figures present included ReSkills’ CEO, Jin Tan, the Chairman of ReSkills, Dr. Steve Tan, and ReSkills’ latest Managing Director, Vince Caruso. Additionally, partners from ReSkills USA and Latin America were also at the event, and shared some insights regarding the company’s corporate exercises and market opportunities – including thoughts on expanded course offerings, new features and updates for the app and online platform, and other efforts to extend ReSkills’ international footprint as the go-to destination for online education – in the USA and Latin American regions.
“From humble beginnings to extraordinary heights, I am profoundly grateful for the journey we’ve shared over the past four years,” added Jin Tan, CEO of ReSkills. “ReSkills aims to challenge the status quo by bringing more Malaysian companies onto the international stage to showcase our talents and capabilities. While the road isn’t always easy, our strong sense of passion and determination will make our goals ultimately achievable.”
The roadmap also outlined several strategic initiatives aimed at further empowering individuals through accessible, quality education. Significantly, ReSkills is preparing for a direct listing on NASDAQ in 2024, with further plans to incorporate immersive Artificial Intelligence (AI) content into its offerings, including programmes such as AI Translation Learning, and AI Robot Coaching. Down the line, the company is also looking at a general expansion of its edtech ecosystem, as well as a synergistic integration of acquired entities and consolidation of market positions to eventually become a dominant edtech conglomerate as the world’s primary AI-powered Learning Hub.
“This pre-NASDAQ celebration marks a significant milestone in our journey,” said Dr. Steve Tan, Chairman of ReSkills, “Achievements like these alongside the challenges we’ve overcome are a testament to the unwavering support of our team, partners, and the countless individuals who have believed in our vision. We remain dedicated to driving positive change in the online learning landscape and empowering individuals across the globe.”
Among these achievements is the development of the ReSkills S.M.A.R.T Learning Hub. Powered by solar energy, this eco-friendly hub provides a sustainable way to deliver high-quality learning to rural communities, overcoming geographical and socioeconomic challenges without harming the environment. In addition, in line with the persistent skills gap – an issue that greatly concerns 72% of global talent leaders, according to Randstad’s 2024 Talent Trends report – ReSkills emphasised its support of and involvement with the Global Reskilling Movement (GRM), a CSR program aiming to provide individuals with complimentary education, comprehensive talent development opportunities, and even personalised job placements.
“I believe that ReSkills has the potential to reshape the education industry, and how it operates. Today, people want to be able to take classes as and when their time allows it, so long as it’s both affordable and relevant — a curriculum that adapts to what is needed,” notes Vince Caruso, Managing Director of ReSkills, adding “Meanwhile, the only exchange that suits a company like Reskills is NASDAQ, and on that front, it’s worth noting that 85-90 % of the largest tech companies in the world are situated there.”
Fundamentally, ReSkills’ 4th anniversary celebration served to shine a spotlight on the company’s success so far, as well as its blueprint to facilitate affordability, accessibility and inclusivity in education for learners everywhere.
