ECCE Insights is the monthly webinar hosted by the SEGi Group of Colleges to inspire the community through the insights shared by industry experts.

Our third ECCE Insights is happening on Friday 3 July at 830pm, Malaysian time. This webinar is different as it will be in Mandarin, hosted by Michelle Huan, ECE lecturer from SEGi College Subang Jaya, who spoke at our first ECCE Insights in May.

Our earlier webinars looked at the ECCE services in our Covid 19 world. The June webinar looked specifically at sustainability in the ECCE industry, and it coincided with Taskas re-opening starting 2 June. We thank LittleLives for the summary of key points raised at the session. Arjuna Raj, the Chief Strategy Officer of LittleLives was one of our speakers at the session.

Our third ECCE Insights coincides with Tadikas resuming operations on 1 July. There have been lots of briefings on the Guidelines on the reopening among the tadika communities. One webinar that was well attended was that hosted by the ECCE Council on 27 June 2020, featuring En Mohd Suffian bin Mahmud, from the Policy and Governance Unit, Panning and Research Sector, Private Education Division, Ministry of Education.
