Executive Training Program

 

JSC’s Executive Training Programs aim to empower businesses and government agencies and equip them with the knowledge, skills and tools to achieve their goals in ways that are compatible with the sustainable development of Malaysia, ASEAN and the world. A blend of world-class experts and outstanding practitioners will nurture the professional development of participants to attain mastery of the core competencies for a broad range of sustainability related themes. Information on our 2017 Executive Training Program can be found here.

 

Master’s in Sustainable Development Practice

 

Together with SDSN, we will launch a Master’s in Sustainable Development Practice program at Sunway University. The program is designed to be a flagship program for sustainable development studies both in Malaysia and globally.

 

Global Master’s in Development Practice

 

To better reflect the new challenges and opportunities in this era of sustainable development, we will be supporting a revision of the Global Masters in Development Practice curriculum. Our efforts will be directed at keeping the curriculum current and influencing participating universities both in Sunway and around the world.

 

Program on Sustainable Development

 

We will be supporting the SDSN in their efforts to develop a full Program on Sustainable Development through its flagship online education initiative: SDG Academy. The goal of this partnership is the development of 10 additional Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), to be jointly developed by global leaders on sustainable development. The courses will be made available to the public and universities for integration into their respective sustainable development programs.

 

Development of SDSN Tools

 

We are committed to supporting and strengthening the core sustainable development activities of the SDSN Secretariat. This includes development of new SDSN tools.

 

Academia and Reference

 

Together with SDSN and Sunway University, we will facilitate the development of up to 10 textbooks focused on the Sustainable Development Goals, creating a global repository of academic, reference books and case studies aligned with a comprehensive SDG curriculum.
