BICSI Expands ICT Professional Development with New Southeast Asia Affiliate

  • BICSI, a prominent global association for information and communications technology (ICT) professionals, is excited to announce the launch of BICSI Southeast Asia. This new affiliate will serve the nations of Brunei, Cambodia, the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. This strategic expansion underscores BICSI's commitment to advancing the ICT profession on a global scale.

    Formed through an agreement with Tecnoviq Learning Academy SDN BHD, BICSI Southeast Asia joins BICSI's global affiliate network, which includes BICSI Japan, BICSI South Pacific, BICSI India, and BICSI CALA. The addition of BICSI Southeast Asia will expand access to professional development opportunities for ICT practitioners in the region. BICSI Southeast Asia aims to provide ICT professionals with advanced training, certifications, and industry-specific events, enhancing skills and fostering innovation across the territory.

    "We are thrilled to be working with Tecnoviq to amplify BICSI's global mission in Southeast Asia", says John H. Daniels, BICSI's chief executive officer. "This collaboration underscores our commitment to empowering BICSI members and other ICT professionals in and around the region to help build the Connected World of tomorrow".

    Since the BICSI Board of Directors established Southeast Asia as a district in 2002, the region has experienced tremendous growth, thanks to the tireless efforts of numerous dedicated volunteers. By organizing BICSI-endorsed events and conferences, we have greatly enhanced networking and educational opportunities for ICT professionals in the area. What began with a few initial activities has now blossomed into the creation of the BICSI Southeast Asia Affiliate, ready to cater to the unique needs of the local ICT community through tailored activities and programs designed to advance the profession.

    "We look forward to nurturing sustainable progress and cultivating future ICT leaders in Southeast Asia", says Mary Elizabeth Cheng, founder of Tecnoviq Learning Academy. BICSI is a leading professional association dedicated to advancing the ICT profession, currently serving over 26,000 members and credential holders. Recognized as the foremost resource for the Connected World, BICSI is headquartered in Tampa, Florida, USA, with a membership base extending across nearly 100 countries.
