JAKARTA - BDx Data Centers (BDx) announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Institute of Technical Education (ITE), in preparing digital infrastructure workers.
This memorandum of understanding is intended to face the future of a rapidly growing industry in Singapore, and ensure that ITE students acquire the necessary competencies to maintain the resilience and high performance of the backbone of the digital industry there.
"By building a local talent development track that is skilled with ITE, we strengthen Singapore's resilience and long-term leadership in the areas of artificial intelligence and digital infrastructure," said Mayank Srivastava, Chief Executive Officer of BDx Data Centers.
Through this collaboration, students will receive practical training at BDx's SIN1 facility which is ready for artificial intelligence (AI) and also equipped with quantum computing trial facilities.
Not only that, this collaboration will also open a structured path to employment opportunities in one of the fastest growing technology sectors in Asia.
This initiative is in line with the increasing demand for skilled professionals who are able to operate AI-based digital infrastructure, financial systems, and essential services across industry lines.
"Our students will gain the practical competencies needed to support the critical operations that drive everything from financial services to the burgeoning applications of artificial intelligence," he added.
Meanwhile, ITE CEO Peter Lam said the data was in line with ITE's mission to build a skilled technical workforce ready for the future.
According to the Asia-Pacific Data Center Association (APDCA), the Singapore data center sector currently provides 7,000 high-value jobs - which are projected to increase almost threefold by 2030, with an economic contribution that grows 8.9 times in the same period.
"Through this collaboration, ITE will work with BDx to integrate real-world data center operational scenarios into teaching modules, ensuring our students graduate with practical competencies and are ready for work in the face of the rapidly evolving technical demands of the sector," concluded Peter.
