Modeled after Japan's prestigious TopSE training course, this initiative focuses on creating "Super Architects" with advanced software engineering skills crucial for success in the ICT sector.
Targeting over 1,000 mid-career ICT professionals, the program offers specialized, hands-on training relevant to industry needs.
