Partner to Bridge Higher Education and Corporate Innovation"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p><b>Kuala<br \/>\nLumpur, 17 October 2025<\/b> \u2013 By 2030, nine of the top ten skills<br \/>\nidentified by the World Economic Forum will be human skills such as creativity,<br \/>\ncritical thinking, and emotional intelligence. Yet across Malaysia, many<br \/>\norganisations still face a widening gap between technical expertise and the<br \/>\nhuman capabilities that drive innovation and growth.<\/p>\n<p>HELP University and Human Inc.<br \/>\nare proud to announce a strategic partnership to close that gap, bringing<br \/>\ndesign thinking and innovation capability to the forefront of learning in<br \/>\nuniversities, boardrooms, and beyond.<\/p>\n<p>Aligned with Malaysia\u2019s <b>Madani Economy<\/b> and <b>Digital Economy Blueprint<\/b>, the collaboration supports the country\u2019s<br \/>\npush to strengthen competitiveness through upskilling, innovation, and human<br \/>\ncapital development. This partnership directly responds to that need by<br \/>\ncombining HELP\u2019s academic excellence with Human Inc.\u2019s proven expertise in<br \/>\ndesign-led transformation and leadership development.<\/p>\n<p>Under the agreement, HELP<br \/>\nUniversity will certify selected Human Inc. capability programmes, allowing<br \/>\ncorporate leaders to earn university-recognised credentials while mastering the<br \/>\ntools and mindsets that power innovation. These certified programmes are also <b>HRDC claimable<\/b>, making them more<br \/>\naccessible for organisations investing in their people.<\/p>\n<p>HELP master\u2019s students will<br \/>\ngain access to Human Inc.\u2019s flagship <b>Design<br \/>\nThinking Practitioner Programme<\/b>, which builds hands-on experience in<br \/>\nsolving complex, real-world challenges using the same human-centred methods<br \/>\napplied by leading organisations across Asia.<\/p>\n<p>The collaboration comes in<br \/>\nresponse to growing demand from Human Inc.\u2019s corporate clients seeking<br \/>\ncertified programmes that strengthen employability, career progression, and<br \/>\ninnovation capability. Unlike traditional training collaborations, this<br \/>\npartnership bridges two worlds that rarely meet. Corporate learners gain<br \/>\nacademic recognition for applied innovation, while students learn from<br \/>\nindustry-proven design practices. The result is a new model for lifelong<br \/>\nlearning that links employability, creativity, and commercial performance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis partnership brings<br \/>\ntogether the academic excellence of HELP University and the real-world<br \/>\ninnovation expertise of Human Inc.,\u201d said <b>Eric<br \/>\nBryan Amaladas<\/b>, Senior Director, Industry Partnership &amp; Talent<br \/>\nDevelopment of HELP University. \u201cTogether, we are creating pathways for<br \/>\nprofessionals to upskill and reskill in design thinking, a vital capability for<br \/>\nthe future of work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTechnology is transforming<br \/>\nhow we work.
