SEGi College Sarawak has taken a significant leap forward in its commitment to delivering top-tier creative multimedia education with the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Betapuru Digital Sdn Bhd and Illustrato Studio PLT.
This partnership, formalised on 8 October 2024, reinforces SEGi’s dedication to providing students with the practical skills and industry exposure necessary to thrive in the rapidly evolving digital landscape. The collaboration aims to bridge the gap between academic learning and industry practice, ensuring that SEGi students graduate job-ready and equipped with cutting-edge expertise.
The MoU will see students from SEGi’s Diploma in Creative Multimedia (DICM) programme gain hands-on experience through internships, workshops, and collaborative projects with industry leaders.
This collaboration will also drive research and innovation in areas such as digital media and creative technology, fostering a deeper connection between academia and the real-world challenges of the multimedia sector. The initiative aligns with global trends in education, as institutions worldwide recognise the importance of aligning academic programmes with industry demands to boost employability and innovation.
This partnership represents SEGi’s ongoing efforts to prepare students for the future. According to a 2023 report by PwC, 79% of CEOs are concerned about the availability of key skills, underscoring the critical need for collaborations between academia and industry to address skills gaps in areas like multimedia and digital technology. SEGi’s proactive approach in nurturing such collaborations sets it apart in ensuring that students are prepared for the challenges of the global digital economy.
