MSC Malaysia Capability Development Programme

	In an increasingly demanding, competitive and sophisticated global market, MSC Malaysia Capability Development Programme (CDP) is designed to help local ICT organisations to maximise their potentials by adopting global good practices and process improvements. CDP introduces a systematic approach in the delivery of products and services and prepares companies into the next phase of growth. CDP's programmes to empower local companies are aimed at enabling them to focus on their core competency and hone their competitive edge. This is in line with the MSC Malaysia initiatives in catalysing wealth creation for the nation.  At present there are 11 organisational development programmes offered together with a new initiative for individual capability development launched early this year called the “Get IT Certified” campaign. This initiative focuses on improving the skills of ICT professionals in Malaysia in delivering world-class services. CDP not only assists companies and individuals in achieving these certifications more cost-effectively (nearly 50% cost reduction) but it also enables additional benefits from monthly dialogues, seminars, clinics and workshops developed to gear the MSC Malaysia status companies to achieve certifications that would ensure business continuity.
