technologies.

"By partnering Infor to expose our students to the latest industry software
and real-world applications, we provide an avenue for them to be better
equipped with the skills and knowledge that are relevant to the needs of the
digital workforce. We also have plans to roll this out at a later stage to
adult learners doing Continuing Education and Training courses with us," said

with Infor's sponsorship of student competitions to promote contextualised
learning, this collaboration provides our students an excellent platform to

Factory Track and Infor CloudSuite Human Capital Management in their
coursework.

job preparedness to support digital transformation in this ever-changing
dynamic landscape. For a regional hub like Singapore, this means we need to
take the responsibility to invest in the future of this country and empower
millennials and educational institutions with the right set of critical skills
and tools needed in the digital economy," said Wesley Kowalski, Head of ASEAN,
Infor. "We are pleased to support NYP's mission to nurture empowered learners
