NEXT month, an accounting fresh graduate from Tunku Abdul Rahman University College (TAR UC) will be representing Malaysia at a digital challenge that will see her competing with participants from across the Asia-Pacific region. At the national round, participants were tested on management spreadsheets, an area in which Tan had an upper hand as Advanced Spreadsheets was covered in her Bachelor of Commerce (Hons) programme. At the upcoming grand final, participants will have their data analytics knowledge tested. Tan is the second student from TAR UC who has advanced to the grand final of the competition, which is in its fourth edition this year. Held virtually, the ICDL Asia Digital Challenge 2021 is aimed at fostering practical digital skills, such as emerging technologies, data analytics, design, and the use of office application tools, required of various professionals in the workplace today and the future.
