UTAR and Silverlake Group are set to collaborate
on a software system for the operation, management, and strategic planning
of a learning institution under the memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed
on 3 May 2016 at Silverlake Group headquarters, KPMG Tower.
“The system will be a fully integrated system
that enables a learning institution to be linked and supports various
stakeholders through the Internet, with highly efficient, effective, and
user-friendly system features,” said UTAR President Ir Prof Academician
Dato’ Dr Chuah Hean Teik.
“The system will support individuals’ lifelong
learning and career development, as well as industries through comprehensive
and effective matching of individuals’ skills and capabilities to
industries’ needs,” said Silverlake Group Founder and Group Executive
Chairman Goh Peng Ooi.
More than a year ago, both institutions launched
the UTAR SilverCard for all staff and students in Kampar Campus. It serves
as an ID card and e-wallet, which can be used to pay for services and
merchandise in the campus.
The payment instrument aimed to transform the
university into a cashless environment and enrich students’ campus life by
using the latest contactless payment technology.
