Centre Director Key Message

CGTI was established since 2015 by TAFTAC members for the purpose to serve the Garment, Footwear and Travel Goods Sector (GFT), by providing training and consultant services to members and general public, particularly providing skills and quality workforces for the Labour market. CGTI run by the initiative of all members for compulsory contribution of training levy to support building up capacity and skills for members’ staff and workers. In return, the members have option to leverage on the training levy for their own in-house capacity development, and partake the in-service training offered by CGTI.

In the other hand, it was also agreed that CGTI would follow a business model that include fee for services as
essential to achieving sustainability. Marking our 6 th years Journey since our official launched on 23 rd August 2017,accredited by the Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training, CGTI provide training services include
both long and short-term courses in technical and soft skills, labour law and ISO which are exclusively required by Industry.

Considering that having the right skills among workers and staff is crucial for factories or industries to succeed in trade, and vice versa trade is important to provide workers with the right skills, as well as availability of skilled workers contributes to higher and more diversified exports, FDI, higher absorption of technology, and more sustainable growth and productive employment creation, CGTI pay high attention with each training courses’ development in responding to the Skills Needs and Industry 4.0.

At the same time, skills are the key determinant for workers to find a better job and livelihood. Providing the “right skills at the right time” is very important to prevent skills’ mismatches between the needs and demand for the present and future.
