Jakarta, 9 November 2023 - Bank Jago officially launched the Jago Digital Academy (JDA) as a collaborative platform for digital talents to accelerate their knowledge and skills. The JDA program aligns with Bank Jago's aspiration to enhance the growth of millions through life-focused digital financial solutions.

The launch of this collaboration program with academics and practitioners in the field of digital technology was celebrated at Bank Jago's headquarters on Thursday (9/11/2023), featuring a talk show on Banking 4.0 and attended by distinguished professors from various universities, representatives from the Kampus Merdeka program, and the OJK Institute.

"Jago Digital Academy is one of Bank Jago's innovations to actively contribute to creating positive impact and providing significant contributions to advancing the quality of human resources. Through this program, we hope to shape and produce digital talents who are not only competent but also ready to work," said President Director of Bank Jago, Arief Harris Tandjung.

As part of the JDA launch event and Banking 4.0 talk show, discussions highlighted the increasing importance of tech engineers, which are inseparable from the future of technology-based industries, especially digital banking. This is the foundation for Bank Jago's initiative and its strategic partner, D'Katalis Digital Lab, to develop AI-based digital learning systems for Indonesian digital talents.

"D'Katalis shares the same concern to contribute to building quality, innovative, and tech-savvy human resources in Indonesia. Through Jago Digital Academy, we facilitate those who want to deepen their digital skills by providing in-depth learning modules, corporate case studies, and guidance from experienced practitioners. This aligns with our aspiration to be catalysts, contributing to every change through digital solutions," explained CEO of Dkatalis Kharim Siregar.

Head of Culture, Communication, and Sustainability at Bank Jago Maya Kartika, revealed that the JDA program is currently open for three technical skills tracks: Product Management, Engineering, and Data Science. "These will be complemented with knowledge of Digital Banking and the Soft Skills required in the professional world," she explained.

Through the JDA program, Maya continued, students are encouraged to seek experiences outside the campus and learn from experts in the field of digital technology, preparing them for an increasingly competitive job market.

In addition to collaborating with ecosystem partners, Bank Jago is also collaborating with several universities in the development of JDA. Therefore, participation from partner campuses can consider the JDA program curriculum as part of their semester credit units (SKS). Currently, only the University of Indonesia and Bina Nusantara University have recognized participation in JDA as SKS.

Bank Jago is also exploring partnerships with the Kampus Merdeka internship program and other universities, which in the future may also allow participants from other campuses to credit Jago Digital Academy as SKS.

The presence of Jago Digital Academy is expected to address the challenges of digitalization, particularly in the banking sector, by actively contributing to Indonesia's digital growth, not only in the financial or banking industry but also in strengthening infrastructure and human resource competencies to meet future industry needs.
