Do I need to register my training course with
HRDF?

▪ At the moment, training courses are not compulsory to be

registered with HRDF. A registered Training Provider can
offer their training courses through our Skim Bantuan Latihan
SBL & SBL-Khas schemes.

▪ However, HRDF is currently developing a Learning

Marketplace with the objective to increase visibility on the
training providers, trainers and the courses offered.
Therefore, all training providers can pre-register your training
course(s) by submitting application via Training Course
