IndSF focuses mainly on Level 4 Malaysian Skill Certification or its equivalent and above as a complimentary document to existing frameworks such as the National Occupational Skills Standard.
This initiative began in March 2019 when the IndSF Unit under the Research and Development Department was tasked to actively engage with industry players and subject matter experts through the Sectorial Training Committee. Consequently, the unit has been facilitating the development of the skills framework documents through various engagements, meetings and workshops.
Individuals in their early and/or mid-career can use the Skills Framework to make informed decisions on education and training, upskilling and career development. This is based on the sector, employment, occupation/job role, skills, and training information in the framework.
Employers can use the Skills Framework to design progressive human resource management and talent development plans based on the detailed skills information outlined within the
framework.
Training Providers can use the Skills Framework to gain insights into sector trends and skills in demand, which allow them to innovate and contextualise their curricular design and training programmes to suit the needs of their sector.
