“Menakjubkan! (Amazing!)” The first word that came from YB Datuk Dr. Yusof Yacob, Minister of Education and Innovation Sabah when he shared his engagement experience with Institut Teknologi Petroleum PETRONAS (INSTEP). On 23 February 2020, the delegates from Ministry of Education and Innovation Sabah (MEIS) accompanied by PETRONAS Sabah Labuan were accorded a warm welcome by INSTEP Management, led by Mr. Idris Ibrahim, CEO of PETRONAS Technical Training Sdn Bhd.
The half-day engagement was a strategic avenue for the MEIS delegates to gain introduction to INSTEP as a solutions partner, as well as to foster strong collaboration between both parties.
“As part of PETRONAS agenda, INSTEP will indefinitely support the Sabah state in producing technical talents to support the local operations.” Mr. Idris highlighted that INSTEP will play a strong supportive role in bridging the theoretical studies at school with the industry requirements, which will be much needed to the business outlook and sustainability in Sabah.
Upholding the aspirations of enriching Sabahans with technical skills and knowledge, YB Datuk Dr. Yusof Yacob looked into charting the way forward in developing human resources and instilling science & technology interest in school students. “Collaboration with industry partners will be crucial in shaping the future of Sabahans, and INSTEP, as an internationally accredited training centre, will be a possible avenue to offer TVET training to Sabahans.”
Before departing for Sabah, the delegates had the opportunity to visit INSTEP Upstream Downstream Training Plant (UDTP), where they were briefed about UDTP’s game-changing role in providing real plant experiential learning in a safe environment.
“Experiencing is Enriching,” the strategic engagement with the MEIS delegates signifies a strong understanding between both parties, in enriching the Sabahans for their sustainable future, which also marks a great leap in charting a strengthened brand and reputation for PETRONAS and INSTEP.
