If you’re already employed but know of friends or relatives who are fresh graduates looking for a job or will be graduating soon….then read on too!

You can help them by telling them about the Graduate Development Programme (GDP).

Here’s what GDP is all about:

The Securities Industry Development Corporation (SIDC) presents you with an opportunity to fast track your career into the capital market via its Graduate Development Programme (GDP).

GDP was a part of Second Stimulus Package announced by YAB Dato’ Sri Mohd Najib Tun Razak on 10 March 2009, where the Securities Commission (SC) is implementing a new initiative that will create 500 jobs in the capital market for Malaysian graduates.

Funded by the SC and the Capital Market Development Fund, the SEED programme comprises three training streams to meet the needs of the capital market:

   1) Graduate Executive Training (GET) – targeted specifically at developing entry level regulators.
   2) Islamic Capital Market Graduate Training Scheme (ICMGTS) – targeted at developing a pool of entry level Islamic Capital Market professionals.
   3) Graduate Development Programme (GDP) – targeted at developing a pool of entry level market professionals.

If you’re interested in the capital market industry, ready to gain real-time experience in a challenging environment by working side-by-side with your brightest peers, then this is your chance.

The GDP is a national development programme  that offers you a breadth of experience needed to enhance your personal and career development. Consisting of 2 parts, you will first go through an approximately 6 weeks intensive classroom training, where you’ll learn from the best capital market industry experts.

You stand to gain plenty of technical knowledge as well as soft skills needed to boost your confidence and unleash your true potential before you step into your first job.

Did we mention – you’ll also get to sit for the Securities Commission Licensing Examinations, which will make you even more attractive to prospective capital market intermediaries!!

After leveraging on what the SIDC has to offer in the classroom, you move on to Part 2 of the programme; this is where you get to work as a trainee in a licensed stockbroking company or investment bank for up to 22 months. 

AND….the best part – in addition to giving you all of the above, we pay you too.

Throughout your tenure as a GDP participant, you will receive an RM1,500.00 allowance monthly from day 1!
