EC-COUNCIL CYBERSECURITY PROFESSIONAL CERTIFICATION TRAIN & PLACE PROGRAM.

About Us

In a significant move to empower the Malaysian Indian community and address the nation’s critical need for digital defence experts, the Malaysian Indian Transformation Unit (MITRA) has collaborated with Intellize to deliver the EC-Council Cybersecurity Professional Certification “Train & Place” Program. This initiative is a purpose-built pathway designed not just to educate, but to ensure tangible career outcomes for its participants.

Why This “Train & Place” Program is Critically Important

Malaysia’s rapid digitalization has created an urgent and massive demand for skilled cybersecurity professionals. This program is crucial because it directly tackles this skills gap with a proven, effective model:

Industry-Recognized Credentials: The program provides training for globally respected EC-Council certifications, such as the EC-Council Certified Security Specialist (E|CSS), Certified Network Defender (C|ND) & Certified Ethical Hacker (C∣EH). These credentials are the gold standard in the industry, immediately validating a professional’s skills to employers.
A Solution-Oriented Model: Unlike traditional training, the “Train & Place” model is a complete career solution. It bridges the gap between acquiring knowledge and securing employment. The “Train” component equips participants with high-demand skills, while the “Place” component guarantees them a job, providing a direct return on their investment of time and effort.
Strengthening National Security: By creating a new pipeline of certified cybersecurity defenders, this program directly contributes to protecting Malaysia’s businesses, government infrastructure, and digital economy from the ever-present threat of cyberattacks.

Direct Benefits for the Malaysian Indian Community

This collaboration between MITRA and Intellize is specifically structured to generate profound and lasting benefits for the Malaysian Indian community:

Targeted Socio-Economic Upliftment: As MITRA’s core mandate is the socio-economic development of the community, this program is a direct investment in its future. By offering a fully supported path into high-income cybersecurity careers, it provides a powerful tool for financial empowerment and upward mobility.
Removing Financial Barriers: High-quality tech certification programs can be expensive. MITRA’s involvement ensures that this program is fully funded for eligible candidates, removing the financial barriers that might otherwise prevent talented individuals from participating.
Guaranteed Career Pathway: The most significant benefit is the promise of employment. The program is designed to guide participants through training, certification, and directly into a job. This eliminates the uncertainty of job hunting and provides a clear, structured route to professional success.
Building Community Representation: This initiative actively works to increase the representation of the Malaysian Indian community in the high-tech sector. By creating a skilled cohort of cybersecurity experts, it fosters a new generation of role models and leaders in a critical and influential industry.
