ITU International Training Program 2015

ITU is organizing an International Training Programme 2015 (ITP 2015) that will be held on 26-28 August 2015 at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The ITP 2015 co-organized and hosted by  the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) and supported by the Ministry of Communications and Multimedia, Malaysia and the Department of Communications, Government of Australia.

The ITP 2015 aims at building skills on the policy and regulatory issues in a fully connected digital economy and how the regulations need to adapt to rapidly developing global and regional environments. The Training will highlight the building blocks of policy and regulatory enablers required to ensure regulatory measures remain appropriate for the new environment. It will bring together international experiences in this area with focus on Malaysia's experiences and lessons learnt.

We are also pleased to invite you to participate in the ITU-MCMC Asia-Pacific Regional Forum for Telecommunication/ICT and Financial Regulators on Digital Financial Inclusion on 26 August 2015 (morning only) in the same venue where financial regulators from the region have been invited to meet and engage in a discussion with telecommunication regulators on the subject: digital financial inclusion.
