"Themed Cross-Border Learning, this initiative can intensify the aspects of upskilling, reskilling and knowledge empowerment that are more holistic and relevant in facing the new reality of the post-pandemic job market and the era of Industrial Revolution 4.0," he said when met at the High Impact Training Launch Ceremony in Conjunction with the National Training Week (NTW) 2025 at the EPIC Bhd Headquarters, Kemaman Supply Base (KSB) here.

Also taking place were high-impact sharing and training sessions with Sultan Mizan Zainal Polytechnic (PSMZA), Sultan Zainal Abidin University (UniSZA), Credit Counselling and Management Agency (AKPK) and several other strategic partners.
"This training covers various relevant topics at the moment such as artificial intelligence (AI), personal financial management, ethics and professional image as well as self-management.
"All of this aims to equip EPIC employees with current skills and added value to face the challenges of the ever-changing world of work.
"HR Week 2025 is not just to complete the annual training requirements, but also a platform to nurture a culture of continuous learning and instil the values that form the foundation of the organisation among EPIC Bhd employees," he said.
