As a Country Director of Google Indonesia, Randy Yusuf also said that Google and Telkom University, both of Indonesia’s finest private universities, will be the first to get scholarships from Google for as many as 2000 IT Support Certificates students, employees, and instructors.
“We focus on job seekers and students who want to upgrade their abilities in the second pillar, and Grow with Google is currently creating a recruitment consortium with 40 company partners and is capable of receiving job applications from Google Career certificate holders.” Obviously.
Ir. Sindhu Aryanto, President Director of the Telkom Education Foundation, said that the Telkom Group supports Google Indonesia’s aim of developing future digital talent through the Google Career Certificates program, which has been a long-awaited program for both business and academia.
“One of the things that happen between the industrial sector and education is that there is a gap between needs and accessible competencies, which is something we want to pursue all the time.” Google has begun to close the gap as far as I can tell. “I sincerely appreciate and thank Google Indonesia for selecting Telkom University as its first partner to grant IT Support Certificate scholarships to 2,000 Telkom University students,” he said.
Prof. Adiwijaya, Rector of Telkom University, welcomed the collaboration, which he said was prompted by the President of the Republic of Indonesia, who stated that Indonesia will require more than 15 million digital talents in the future. Through collaboration, Telkom University is becoming more prepared to assist the nation in producing digital talents for the Indonesian nation.
“We hope that the academic community can put the relationship between Telkom University and Google to good use by continuing to enhance their talents so that together we can produce and become a superior generation for the Indonesian nation,” he said.
