Revolutionizing Digital Talent: The SYNRGY Academy Experience

Are you feeling a little digitally challenged lately? Do you feel like you're missing out on all the high-tech fun? Well, fear not, because the demand for digital talent is growing faster than ever, and there are plenty of opportunities to get on board.

Just take a look at the SYNRGY Academy, a corporate social responsibility program by PT Bank Central Asia Tbk (BCA) in partnership with BINAR. This program has attracted nearly 3,000 applicants, and only the crème de la crème were selected to participate in the intensive six-month bootcamp.

The program includes various bootcamp classes such as Quality Assurance, Full-stack Web Development, UI/UX Research & Design, Backend Java, Android Engineering, and Cyber Security. And the best part? Participants get to apply their knowledge directly to real-life community problems. How cool is that?

Seto Lareno, Director of Operations at BINAR, stressed the importance of character development in producing well-rounded digital talent. And it seems to be working, as the program's curriculum has been adopted by top brands across different sectors.

But the perks don't stop there. Participants receive direct instruction from experienced mentors, acquire skills that align with industry demands, and even get access to non-technical skill enhancement workshops. Plus, they're given the opportunity to work within the BCA Group and receive support in securing employment opportunities as a BINAR bootcamp alumnus through Job Connect.

Rindho Ananta, a Full-stack Web Development class participant, raves about his experience in the program, saying, "The Final Project was the most remarkable experience for me, as it entailed the application of both hard and soft skills. By enrolling in the SYNRGY program, students not only acquire knowledge pertinent to their selected courses but also develop practical abilities that are commonly utilized in their future careers. This was a crucial milestone for me as I took a major step towards entering the professional world."

Hera F. Haryn, BCA EVP Corporate Communication & Social Responsibility, hopes that the SYNRGY Academy will promote Indonesia's digital economy by nurturing talent. And with the growing demand for digital skills, it seems like this program is just the beginning.

So, if you're feeling left behind in the digital age, don't fret. The opportunities are out there, and programs like the SYNRGY Academy are paving the way for the next generation of digital talent.
